LORDER(1)              DragonFly General Commands Manual             LORDER(1)

NAME
     lorder -- list dependencies for object files

SYNOPSIS
     lorder file ...

DESCRIPTION
     The lorder utility uses nm(1) to determine interdependencies in the list
     of object files specified on the command line.  The lorder utility
     outputs a list of file names where the first file contains a symbol which
     is defined by the second file.

     The output is normally used with tsort(1) when a library is created to
     determine the optimum ordering of the object modules so that all
     references may be resolved in a single pass of the loader.

EXAMPLES
           ar cr library.a `lorder ${OBJS} | tsort`

SEE ALSO
     ar(1), ld(1), nm(1), ranlib(1), tsort(1)

HISTORY
     A lorder utility appeared in Version 7 AT&T UNIX.
