infile outfile
DESCRIPTIONnlmconv converts the relocatable i386 object file infile
into the NetWare Loadable Module outfile, optionally reading
headerfile for NLM header information. For instructions on
writing the NLM command file language used in header files,
see the linkers section, NLMLINK in particular, of the NLM
Development and Tools Overview, which is part of the NLM
Software Developer's Kit (``NLM SDK''), available from
Novell, Inc. nlmconv uses the GNU Binary File Descriptor
library to read infile;
nlmconv can perform a link step. In other words, you can
list more than one object file for input if you list them in
the definitions file (rather than simply specifying one
input file on the command line). In this case, nlmconv calls
the linker for you.
OPTIONS-I bfdname
--input-target=bfdname
Object format of the input file. nlmconv can usually
determine the format of a given file (so no default is
necessary).
-O bfdname
--output-target=bfdname
Object format of the output file. nlmconv infers the
output format based on the input format, e.g. for a i386
input file the output format is nlm32-i386.
-T headerfile
--header-file=headerfile
Reads headerfile for NLM header information. For
instructions on writing the NLM command file language
used in header files, see see the linkers section, of
the NLM Development and Tools Overview, which is part of
the NLM Software Developer's Kit, available from Novell,
Inc.
