+forceload option of LD on PA platforms

[ambika_1]

Hi,
On PA platform ( both 11.11 and 11.23 PA) i am trying to load all the object files from a archaive library while linking, but i getting following warning message.
ld: (Warning) Ignoring +forceload. The option is currently not supported in a 32-bit PA link.
But I am able to load all the object files in IA platforms, is there are other option in PA platform for +forceload option.

Thanks and Regards,
Ambika

Hi,
IPF and PA64 +[no]forceload, PA32 equivalent is -Fl.

Hope this solves your question.

Hi,
What is the difference between +forceload and -Fl otpions, as i am seeing same behaviour with both the options.

The -Fl option only applies to the next archive. Whereas +forceload is sticky.
