Compilers and assemblers generate relocatable object files (also shared object files). Linkers combine these object files together to generate executable object files. Object files vary from system to system. The first UNIX system used the a.out format. Early versions of System V used the COFF (...

Linkers and Loaders Software by Sandeep Grover on November 26, 2002 Linking is the process of combining various pieces of code and data together to form a single executable that can be loaded in memory. Linking can be done at compile time, at load time (by loaders) and also at run ...
Hardware and software relocation Hardware relocation allows an operation system to give each process a separate address that starts at a fixed known address, which makes program loading easier and prevents buggy programs in one address space from damaging programs in otheraddress spaces. Software linke...
An assembler, like a compiler, is a converter from source code to target code, so many of the usual compiler construction techniques are applicable in assembler construction; they include lexical analysis, symbol table management, and backpatching. There
Linkers can also write information into a program about where a dynamic linker or loader can find its dependencies at process load/run time.Dynamic loading refers to loading a library at run-time with dlopen/LoadLibrary.Static loading refers to loading that occurs due to dependencies found during...
