USing DOS Segment Order
Syntax:
/dosseg
The Idosseg option causes link to arrange all segments in the
executable file according to the MS·DOS segment-ordering conven-
tion. This convention has
the following rules:
•
All segments having the class name CODE are placed at the
beginning of the executable file.
• Any
other segments that do not belong to the group, DGROUP,
are placed immediately after the CODE segments.
•
All segments belonging to DGROUP are placed at the end of
the file.
If you do not use the /dosseg option, see the section, "Order of
Segments," later in this chapter, for an explanation of the normal
segment order.
Minimum abbreviation:
Ido
Example:
The following command causes the linker to create an executable
file, namedfile.exe, whose segments are arranged according to the
MS· DOS segment-ordering convention. The segments in the object
files start.obj and test.obj, and any segments copied from the
libraries math. lib and common.lib, are arranged according to the
same segment-ordering convention as above.
