tools for debugging unresolved externals

[Ramsunder S]

Hi,
We face the "unresolved externals" problem quite often. Typically, we use nm and strings to debug where the unresolved externals reside and fix the problem.
I was just wondering if there are any other utilities that would aid us in debugging these errors better.

Regards,
Ramsunder.

try odump

If you use /usr/ccs/bin/odump -slexport, you can see what is exported.

I use the attached script to analyze the existing libraries and create three files of which the most important is defs.nm which lists which library defines which symbol in which object. Easy to just grep
