Subject: ld option to leave .reloc section on .exe?
Date: Fri, 10 Mar 2000 14:16:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.10.10003101713490.8532-100000@rd.incert.com> (raw)

Is there any way to convince the Cygwin toolchain to leave the relocation
information (normally in a .reloc section) in a .exe file?  By default it
strips it off, and if you pass -r (--relocateable) then what you actually
get is a COFF object file (i.e. an .obj) but with a .exe extension, which
is quite a different kind of animal.

Many thanks!
