CHAPTER 3
LINKING FILES
INTRODUCTION
The purpose of the Zilog cross linker is to read relocatable object files and libraries and link
them together to generate an executable load file. The file may then be loaded or written to a
target system and debugged using ZDS. This chapter briefly describes the linker’s inputs and
outputs, and how the inputs to the linker are transformed into those outputs.
