This version of LINK has several new or changed features. This section summarizes changes in options. Module-definition statements are discussed in Chapter 16. An improved way to create overlaid DOS programs is described in Chapter 15.
The following options are new or changed in this version of LINK:
/DOSS[[EG]]
The minimum unique abbreviation for /DOSSEG option has changed from /DO to /DOSS. (See topic .)
/DY[[NAMIC]][[:number]]
The new /DYNAMIC option lets you change the limit of interoverlay calls in an overlaid DOS program. (See topic .)
/INC[[REMENTAL]]
The /INCR option is no longer supported.
/INF[[ORMATION]]
The /INFO option gives more detailed output. One new use is to get the number of interoverlay calls needed to specify with the /DYNAMIC option. (See topic .)
/M[[AP]][[:maptype]]
The /MAP option has been enhanced. You can get more or less detail in the map file by specifying an optional qualifier. (See topic .)
/NOPACKC[[ODE]]
The minimum unique abbreviation for /NOPACKC has changed from /NOP to /NOPACKC to distinguish it from the new /NOPACKF option. (See topic .)
/NOPACKF[[UNCTIONS]]
The new /NOPACKF option keeps unreferenced packaged functions. (See topic .)
/OL[[DOVERLAY]]
The new /OLDOVERLAY option links an overlaid DOS program using the Static Overlay Manager instead of the MOVE library. This option may not be supported in future versions of LINK. (See topic .)
/ON[[ERROR]]:N[[OEXE]]
The /ONERROR:NOEXE option prevents LINK from creating the program output if an error occurs. (See topic .)
/OV[[ERLAYINTERRUPT]]
The minimum unique abbreviation for this option has changed from /O to /OV, to distinguish it from the new /OLDOVERLAY option. (See topic .)
/PACKF[[UNCTIONS]]
The new /PACKF option removes unreferenced packaged functions. (See topic .)
/PADC[[ODE]]
The /PADC option is no longer supported.
/PADD[[ATA]]
The /PADD option is no longer supported.
/PM[[TYPE]]
The default for the /PM option has changed from NOVIO to PM. (See topic .)
/r
The new /r option tells the linker not to use extended memory. (See topic .)
