The steering file commands are:
Table 9. Steering file command summary
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
EXPORT | Specifies that a symbol can be accessed by other shared objects or executables. |
HIDE | Makes defined global symbols in the symbol table anonymous. |
IMPORT | Specifies that a symbol is defined in a shared object at runtime. |
RENAME | Renames defined and undefined global symbol names. |
REQUIRE | Creates a DT_NEEDED tag
in the dynamic array. DT_NEEDED tags specify
dependencies to other shared objects used by the application, for
example, a shared library. |
RESOLVE | Matches specific undefined references to a defined global symbol. |
SHOW | Makes global symbols visible. This command is useful if you want to make a specific symbol visible that is hidden using a HIDE command with a wildcard. |
Note
The steering file commands control only global symbols. Local symbols are not affected by any of these commands.
