.TH SIZE.1 1 "binutils-2.11.90" "2001-05-30" "GNU"
.UC
.SH "NAME"
size \- list section sizes and total size.

     [ \fIobjfile\fR... ]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The \s-1GNU\s0 \f(CW\*(C`size\*(C'\fR utility lists the section sizes\-\-\-and the total
size\-\-\-for each of the object or archive files \fIobjfile\fR in its
argument list.  By default, one line of output is generated for each
object file or each module in an archive.
.PP
\&\fIobjfile\fR... are the object files to be examined.
If none are specified, the file \f(CW\*(C`a.out\*(C'\fR will be used.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.IX Header "OPTIONS"
The command line options have the following meanings:
.Ip "\f(CW\*(C`\-A\*(C'\fR" 4
.IX Item "-A"
.Ip "\f(CW\*(C`\-B\*(C'\fR" 4
.IX Item "-B"
.Ip "\f(CW\*(C`\-\-format=\f(CIcompatibility\f(CW\*(C'\fR" 4
.IX Item "--format=compatibility"
Using one of these options, you can choose whether the output from \s-1GNU\s0
\&\f(CW\*(C`size\*(C'\fR resembles output from System V \f(CW\*(C`size\*(C'\fR (using \fB\-A\fR,
or \fB\*(--format=sysv\fR), or Berkeley \f(CW\*(C`size\*(C'\fR (using \fB\-B\fR, or
\&\fB\*(--format=berkeley\fR).  The default is the one-line format similar to
Berkeley's.  
.Sp
Here is an example of the Berkeley (default) format of output from
\&\f(CW\*(C`size\*(C'\fR: 
.Sp
.Vb 4
\&        $ size --format=Berkeley ranlib size
\&        text    data    bss     dec     hex     filename
\&        294880  81920   11592   388392  5ed28   ranlib
\&        294880  81920   11888   388688  5ee50   size
.Ve
This is the same data, but displayed closer to System V conventions:
.Sp
.Vb 7
\&        $ size --format=SysV ranlib size
\&        ranlib  :
\&        section         size         addr

\&        .bss           11592       385024       
\&        Total         388392
.Ve
.Vb 6
\&        size  :

.Ip "\f(CW\*(C`\-\-help\*(C'\fR" 4
.IX Item "--help"
Show a summary of acceptable arguments and options.
.Ip "\f(CW\*(C`\-d\*(C'\fR" 4
.IX Item "-d"
.Ip "\f(CW\*(C`\-o\*(C'\fR" 4
.IX Item "-o"
.Ip "\f(CW\*(C`\-x\*(C'\fR" 4
.IX Item "-x"
.Ip "\f(CW\*(C`\-\-radix=\f(CInumber\f(CW\*(C'\fR" 4
.IX Item "--radix=number"
Using one of these options, you can control whether the size of each
section is given in decimal (\fB\-d\fR, or \fB\*(--radix=10\fR); octal
(\fB\-o\fR, or \fB\*(--radix=8\fR); or hexadecimal (\fB\-x\fR, or
\&\fB\*(--radix=16\fR).  In \fB\*(--radix=\fR\fInumber\fR, only the three
values (8, 10, 16) are supported.  The total size is always given in two
radices; decimal and hexadecimal for \fB\-d\fR or \fB\-x\fR output, or
octal and hexadecimal if you're using \fB\-o\fR.
.Ip "\f(CW\*(C`\-\-target=\f(CIbfdname\f(CW\*(C'\fR" 4
.IX Item "--target=bfdname"
Specify that the object-code format for \fIobjfile\fR is
\&\fIbfdname\fR.  This option may not be necessary; \f(CW\*(C`size\*(C'\fR can
automatically recognize many formats.
.Ip "\f(CW\*(C`\-V\*(C'\fR" 4
.IX Item "-V"
.Ip "\f(CW\*(C`\-\-version\*(C'\fR" 4
.IX Item "--version"
Display the version number of \f(CW\*(C`size\*(C'\fR.
