NAME
size - list section sizes and total size.SYNOPSIS
- size
- [-A|-B|--format=compatibility] [--help] [-d|-o|-x|--radix=number] [--target=bfdname] [-V|--version] objfile...
DESCRIPTION
The GNU size utility lists the section sizes-and the total size-for each of the object files objfile in its argument list. By default, one line of output is generated for each object file or each module in an archive.OPTIONS
- -A
- -B
- --format compatibility
-
Using one of these options, you can choose whether the output from GNU
size resembles output from System V size (using `-A',
or `--format=sysv'), or Berkeley size (using `-B', or
`--format=berkeley'). The default is the one-line format similar to
Berkeley's.
- --help
-
Show a summary of acceptable arguments and options.
- -d
- -o
- -x
- --radix number
-
Using one of these options, you can control whether the size of each
section is given in decimal (`-d', or `--radix 10'); octal
(`-o', or `--radix 8'); or hexadecimal (`-x', or
`--radix 16'). In `--radix number', only the three
values (8, 10, 16) are supported. The total size is always given in two
radices; decimal and hexadecimal for `-d' or `-x' output, or
octal and hexadecimal if you're using `-o'.
- --target bfdname
-
You can specify a particular object-code format for objfile as
bfdname. This may not be necessary; size can
automatically recognize many formats. See
objdump(1)
for information
on listing available formats.
- -V
- --version
-
Display version number information on size itself.
