ODUMP(1-SysV)       RISC/os Reference Manual        ODUMP(1-SysV)



NAME
     odump - dumps selected parts of an object file

SYNOPSIS
     odump [-acfghilorstzFGPRL] file1 ... fileN

DESCRIPTION
     The odump command dumps selected parts of each object file.

     This command works for object files and archives of object
     files.  It accepts one or more of these options:

          -a         Dumps the archive header for each member of
                     the specified archive file.

          -c         Dumps the string table.

          -f         Dumps each file header.

          -g         Dumps the global symbols from the symbol
                     table of a MIPS archive.

          -h         Dumps section headers.

          -i         Dumps the symbolic information header.

          -l         Dumps line number information.

          -o         Dumps each optional header.

          -s         Dumps section contents.

          -r         Dumps relocation information.

          -t         Dumps symbol table entries.

          -zname     Dumps line number entries for the specified
                     function name.

          -L         Interpret and print the contents of the .lib
                     sections.

          -F         Dumps the file descriptor table.

          -G         Dumps the "-G n" histogram table.

          -P         Dumps the procedure descriptor table.

          -R         Dumps the relative file index table.

     The odump command accepts these modifiers with the options:

          -dnumber   Dumps the section number or a range of sec-
                     tions starting at number and ending either
                     at the last section number or the number you
                     specify with +d.

          +dnumber   Dumps sections in the range beginning with
                     the first section or beginning with the sec-
                     tion you specify with -d.

          -nname     Dumps information only about the specified
                     name.  This modifier works with -h, -s, -r,
                     -l, and -t.

          -p         Does not print headers

          -tindex    Dumps only the indexed symbol table entry.
                     You can also specify a range of symbol table
                     entries by using the modifier -t with the +t
                     option.

          +tindex    Dumps the symbol table entries in the speci-
                     fied range. The range begins at the first
                     symbol table entry or at the entry specified
                     by -t. The range ends with the specified
                     indexed entry.

          -u         Underlines the name of the file for
                     emphasis.

          -v         Dumps information symbolically rather than
                     numerically (for example, Static rather than
                     0X02 ).  You can use -v with all the options
                     except -s

          -zname,number
                     Dumps the specified line number entry or a
                     range of line numbers.  The range starts at
                     the number for the named function.

          +znumber   Dumps line numbers for a specified range.
                     The range starts at either the name or
                     number specified by -z The range ends with
                     the number specified by +z.

     Optionally, an option and its modifier can be separated by
     using blanks.  The name can be separated from the number
     that modifies -z by replacing the comma with a blank.

     The odump command tries to format information in a helpful
     way, printing information in character, hexadecimal, octal,
     or decimal, as appropriate.
