Question

3. Background: The linux linker is called 1d. By default, the cc command finishes the job of compiling by using 1d to link the compiled program with the C standard library. The error discussed in the preface to 1 appears to be the result of ce using an environment variable in order to find where to look for 1d we have already discussed the standard shell's search path, which it gets from the environment variable PATH·The following questions are best answered by a bit of judicious googling (lower case, because I use this verb to refer to use of any search engine) a) Name some of the search paths that the ce command uses that are not involved with linking. (0.5 points) b) Name at least one search path that the ee command is documented as using but is actually used by the linker (0.5 points)

Explanation / Answer

ld -- the linker has a number of different built-in default linker scripts, and chooses between them based on various other linker options.
