HP Link Editor/XL can use three types of input files:
Relocatable object files.
Command input file, containing commands for processing.
Relocatable library (RL) files to be searched or manipulated
The command input file is the standard file $STDINX.
For sessions, $STDINX is the terminal.
For batch jobs, $STDINX is the job file.
You can redirect $STDINX to another file by using the
STDIN option of the MPE/iX command :RUN.
For example, to use the file named SCRIPT as the standard
input file, enter the command
:RUN LINKEDIT.PUB.SYS;STDIN=SCRIPT
|
You can send one input command through the "INFO=string"
parameter of the MPE/iX command :RUN instead of using
$STDINX.
This starts HP Link Editor/XL, executes the
command you specified,
and exits HP Link Editor/XL.

 | NOTE: A relocatable object file produced by one of the MPE/iX compilers contains one relocatable object module. |

Types of HP Link Editor/XL output files are:
$STDLIST, which is the terminal during a session and the output spool file from a batch job, unless you redirect it, as discussed below.
LINKLIST, which is a list file.
An executable program file.
An executable library file (XL).
A relocatable library file (RL).
A relocatable object file.
You can redirect $STDLIST to another device by using the
STDLIST option of the MPE/iX command :RUN.
For example, the following commands send HP Link Editor/XL output
to the printer and runs HP Link Editor/XL:
:FILE LINKOUT;DEV=LP
:RUN LINKEDIT.PUB.SYS;STDLIST=*LINKOUT
|
LINKLIST information is sent to the $STDLIST device by default.
Symbol map produced by the MAP option of the LINK command.
Listing produced by the LISTPROG command.
Listing produced by the LISTOBJ command.
Listing produced by the LISTRL command.
Listing produced by the MAP option of the ADDXL command.
Listing produced by the LISTXL command.
HP Link Editor/XL creates a list file named LINKLIST
for commands that generate large amounts of information.
It usually writes the information to the $STDLIST device,
but you can redirect LINKLIST to a different device
by using the DEV option of the MPE/iX command :FILE.
For example, the following commands send the listing of a
relocatable library named LIBRL to a line printer:
:FILE LINKLIST;DEV=LP
:LINKEDIT
:LinkEd> LISTRL RL=LIBRL
:LinkEd> EXIT
