Hi, in the continuing saga to figure out what my program looks like, I have been re-compiling my program to try and make it match the compiled version I have saved. However, I have found that two linkings of the same set of object files results in them being different when diff is applied to them. What is going on here? The program is in C at level 2 optimization. Scott Le Grand

The dis command can be useful for figuring out .o changes. For example: dis foo.o > f1 dis bar.o > f2 diff f1 f2 Vernon Schryver, vjs@sgi.com

You may want to get GNU Software's version of diff from prep.ai.mit.edu. It compiles nicely on the IRIS and handles binary files. -- -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Steve Dahmen, Systems Analyst (804) 864-4519 (W) M/S 365, NASA Langley Research Center Hampton, Virginia 23665 smd@rehder.larc.nasa.gov
