CLEANXL
This command eliminates fragmentation which may exist in an executable
library.
Although executable libraries can expand in size, expansion beyond a
certain point fragments the Library Symbol Table so access to that
library becomes slower. The CLEANXL command takes a fragmented library
and rebuilds that library, while allocating sufficient space in the
library's internal tables to allow for expansion. You can use this
command to allocate more space for an executable library, or to conserve
disc space by reducing the size of a partially-filled library.
Syntax
CLEANXL [XL= xl_file]
[;COMPACT]
[;LIMIT= max_modules]
Parameters
xl_file Names an existing executable library (the file must
have an NMXL filecode). If the executable library
does not exist, the link editor reports an error.
Default: condense the current executable library
(established by the last BUILDXL or XL command).
COMPACT Removes fragmentation and reduces the internal tables
of the relocatable library to the minimum size that
will accommodate the current contents of the library.
Using this parameter does not restrict future use of
the library. Default: fragmentation of the internal
tables is removed. A pre-determined amount of space
is allocated for future expansion.
max_modules Specifies a new limit for the maximum number of
relocatable object modules that the library can
contain.
Example
LinkEd> CLEANXL XL=FILEIO
This command rebuilds the executable library FILEIO and restructures its
Library Symbol Table so the table can hold more symbols than it currently
stores.
