| like the primary symbol attributes, they are set between <code>.def</code> and |
| <code>.endef</code> directives. |

| respectively, with <code>.val</code> and <code>.type</code>. |
| |
| <h5 class="subsubsection">5.5.4.2 Auxiliary Attributes</h5> |
| |
| <p><a name="index-auxiliary-attributes_002c-COFF-symbols-238"></a>The <samp><span class="command">as</span></samp> directives <code>.dim</code>, <code>.line</code>, <code>.scl</code>, |
| <code>.size</code>, <code>.tag</code>, and <code>.weak</code> can generate auxiliary symbol |
| table information for COFF. |
