A steering file is a text file that contains a set of commands to edit the symbol tables of output objects and the dynamic sections of images. Steering file commands enable you to:
manage symbols in the symbol table
control the copying of symbols from the static symbol table to the dynamic symbol table
store information about the libraries that a link unit depends on.
For example, you can use steering files to protect intellectual property, or avoid namespace clashes.
