| <!-- man begin DESCRIPTION size --> |
| <p>The <span class="sc">gnu</span> <samp><span class="command">size</span></samp> utility lists the section sizes—and the total |
| size—for each of the object or archive files <var>objfile</var> in its |
| argument list. By default, one line of output is generated for each |
| object file or each module in an archive. |
| |
| <p><var>objfile</var><small class="dots">...</small> are the object files to be examined. |
| If none are specified, the file <code>a.out</code> will be used. |
| |
| <!-- man end --> |
| <!-- man begin OPTIONS size --> |
| <p>The command line options have the following meanings: |
| |
| <dl> |
| <dt><samp><span class="env">-A</span></samp><dt><samp><span class="env">-B</span></samp><dt><samp><span class="env">--format=</span><var>compatibility</var></samp><dd><a name="index-g_t_0040command_007bsize_007d-display-format-107"></a>Using one of these options, you can choose whether the output from <span class="sc">gnu</span> |
| <samp><span class="command">size</span></samp> resembles output from System V <samp><span class="command">size</span></samp> (using <samp><span class="option">-A</span></samp>, |
| or <samp><span class="option">--format=sysv</span></samp>), or Berkeley <samp><span class="command">size</span></samp> (using <samp><span class="option">-B</span></samp>, or |
| <samp><span class="option">--format=berkeley</span></samp>). The default is the one-line format similar to |
| Berkeley's. |
| <!-- Bonus for doc-source readers: you can also say -format=strange (or --> |
| <!-- anything else that starts with 's') for sysv, and -format=boring (or --> |
| <!-- anything else that starts with 'b') for Berkeley. --> |
| |
| <p>Here is an example of the Berkeley (default) format of output from |
| <samp><span class="command">size</span></samp>: |
| <pre class="smallexample"> $ size --format=Berkeley ranlib size |
| text data bss dec hex filename |
| 294880 81920 11592 388392 5ed28 ranlib |
| 294880 81920 11888 388688 5ee50 size |
| </pre> |
| <p class="noindent">This is the same data, but displayed closer to System V conventions: |
| |
| <pre class="smallexample"> $ size --format=SysV ranlib size |
| ranlib : |
| section size addr |
| .text 294880 8192 |

| section is given in decimal (<samp><span class="option">-d</span></samp>, or <samp><span class="option">--radix=10</span></samp>); octal |
| (<samp><span class="option">-o</span></samp>, or <samp><span class="option">--radix=8</span></samp>); or hexadecimal (<samp><span class="option">-x</span></samp>, or |
| <samp><span class="option">--radix=16</span></samp>). In <samp><span class="option">--radix=</span><var>number</var></samp>, only the three |
| values (8, 10, 16) are supported. The total size is always given in two |
| radices; decimal and hexadecimal for <samp><span class="option">-d</span></samp> or <samp><span class="option">-x</span></samp> output, or |
