This section discusses invocation of LIBCOP, search order for help files, default filenames and extensions. See the release letter for installation instructions.
The invocation of LIBCOP is as follows:
libcop.exe libfile [objfile [,objfile...]] [/add] [/nobackup] [/delete] [/echo] [/list [=filename]] [/replace] [/update] [/nowarnings]
where:
libfile | is the name of a library to process. If it does not already exist, then a new library is created. Default extension is .lib. |
name | is a list of one or more object files that are processed by LIBCOP. Default extension is .obj. |
options | is a list of library commands described in Section 4.4. |
Note: MS-DOS supports @cmdfile, where cmdfile contains additional invocation line object filenames and/or options. This file has a default extension of .cmd.
Any error detected on the invocation line causes the Librarian to stop execution and display the part in error with an appropriate message.
The following are sample invocation lines:
C:\COP8\NSASM\EXAMPLES>libcop.exe float sine,cosine /replace C:\COP8\NSASM\EXAMPLES>libcop.exe test dataset /delete
The second command line deletes the module DATASET from the library test.lib.
