VMS Help MACRO, VAX MACRO Assembler, Directives, .LINK  *Conan The Librarian (sorry for the slow response - running on an old VAX)

    Allows you to include Linker  option  records  in  an  object
    module produced  by  VAX  MACRO.   The  qualifiers  for  the .LINK
    directive perform functions similar to the  functions  performed
    by  the  same qualifiers for the DCL command LINK.

      .LINK "file-spec" [/qualifier[=(module-name[,...])],...]

    file-spec[,...]

    A delimited string that specifies one or more input files.  The
    input files  can  be object modules to be linked, or shareable
    images to be included in the output image.  Input  files  can  also
    be  libraries containing  external  references or specific modules
    for inclusion in the output image.  The Linker  will  search  the
    libraries  for  the external  references.   If you specify multiple
    input files, separate the file specifications with commas (,).

    If you do not specify a file type in an input file specification,
    the Linker  supplies default file types, based on the nature of the
    file. All object modules are assumed to have file types of OBJ.

      /INCLUDE=(module-name[,...])

    Indicates that the associated input file  is  an  object  library
    or shareable image library, and that only the module names
    specified are to be unconditionally included as input to the
    Linker.  At least  one module  name  must be specified.  If you
    specify more than one module name, separate  the  names  with
    commas  and  enclose  the  list  in parentheses.

      /LIBRARY

    Indicates that the associated input file is a library to be
    searched for modules to resolve any undefined symbols in the input
    files.

      /SELECTIVE_SEARCH

    Directs the Linker to add to  its  symbol  table  only  those
    global symbols  that  are  defined  in  the specified file and are
    currently unresolved.   If  /SELECTIVE_SEARCH  is  not  specified,
    the  Linker includes all symbols from that file in its global
    symbol table.

      /SHAREABLE

    Requests that the Linker include a shareable image file.  No
    wildcard characters are allowed in the file specification.
