Linking with the mapfile option

Using the mapfile option

To use the mapfile option, you must:

enter mapfile directives into a file (this is your ``mapfile'')
enter the following option on the ld command line:
```
	-M mapfile
```
mapfile is the file name of the file you produced in step 1. If the mapfile is not in your current directory, you must include the full path name; no default search path exists. (See the ld manual page for information on operation of the ld command.)

CAUTION: The mapfile option can only by used in static mode. The -dn option must accompany the -M option on the ld command line or ld returns a fatal error.
