| Summary | 0013858: Automatic handling of .sym (exported symbol list) files on Linux | ||||||||
| Description | On Windows when you add a .def file, it just works i.e. no need to pass "/DEF:filename.def" (MSVC) or "-Wl,--def=filename.def" (MinGW) flags to the compiler. I propose a similar behaviour for .sym files (or perhaps different extension) on Linux systems which would add "-Wl,--retain-symbols-file=filename.sym" to the link command line. | ||||||||

Interesting idea. Implementation will require at least the following: (1) Choose an extension and/or define a source file property to mark a file for this purpose. Can you provide examples of this being used in practice? Are there any conventions for the extension? (2) Determine how to know when the linker is aware of this flag. Is it specific to Linux, to GNU binutils, etc.? When was it added? How do we detect its availability? (3) Find the .def ("module definition") file handling code in existing CMake generators and add similar code for this one, possibly generalizing the original implementation to handle both. |
