Disabling the Linker ( − c Shell Option)
4-5 Linking C Code
4.3 Disabling the Linker ( − c Shell Option)
You can override the − z option by using the − c shell option. The − c option is
especially helpful if you specify the − z option in the C_OPTION environment
variable and want to selectively disable linking with the − c option on the
command line.
The − c linker option has a different function than, and is independent of, the
− c shell option. By default, the compiler uses the − c linker option when you use
the − z option. This tells the linker to use C linking conventions (autoinitializa-
tion of variables at runtime). If you want to initialize variables at load time, use
the
− cr linker option following the − z option.
