NAME

       size - size of an object file

SYNOPSIS

       size [ object ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       Size  prints  the (decimal) number of bytes required by the text, data, and bss portions, and their sum in hex and decimal, of each object-
       file argument.  If no file is specified, a.out is used.

NAME

       size - list section sizes and total size.

SYNOPSIS

       size [-A|-B|--format=compatibility]
	    [--help]
	    [-d|-o|-x|--radix=number]
	    [-t|--totals]
	    [--target=bfdname] [-V|--version]
	    [objfile...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  GNU  size utility lists the section sizes---and the total size---for each of the object or archive files objfile in its argument list.
       By default, one line of output is generated for each object file or each module in an archive.

       objfile... are the object files to be examined.	If none are specified, the file "a.out" will be used.

OPTIONS

       The command line options have the following meanings:

       -A
       -B
       --format=compatibility
	   Using one of these options, you can choose whether the output from GNU size resembles output from System V size (using  -A,	or  --for-
	   mat=sysv), or Berkeley size (using -B, or --format=berkeley).  The default is the one-line format similar to Berkeley's.

	   Here is an example of the Berkeley (default) format of output from size:

		   $ size --format=Berkeley ranlib size
		   text    data    bss	   dec	   hex	   filename
		   294880  81920   11592   388392  5ed28   ranlib
		   294880  81920   11888   388688  5ee50   size

	   This is the same data, but displayed closer to System V conventions:

		   $ size --format=SysV ranlib size
		   ranlib  :
		   section	   size 	addr
		   .text	 294880 	8192
		   .data	  81920       303104
		   .bss 	  11592       385024
		   Total	 388392

		   size  :
		   section	   size 	addr
		   .text	 294880 	8192
		   .data	  81920       303104
		   .bss 	  11888       385024
		   Total	 388688

       --help
	   Show a summary of acceptable arguments and options.

       -d
       -o
       -x
       --radix=number
	   Using  one  of  these  options, you can control whether the size of each section is given in decimal (-d, or --radix=10); octal (-o, or
	   --radix=8); or hexadecimal (-x, or --radix=16).  In --radix=number, only the three values (8, 10, 16) are supported.  The total size is
	   always given in two radices; decimal and hexadecimal for -d or -x output, or octal and hexadecimal if you're using -o.

       -t
       --totals
	   Show totals of all objects listed (Berkeley format listing mode only).

       --target=bfdname
	   Specify  that  the  object-code format for objfile is bfdname.  This option may not be necessary; size can automatically recognize many
	   formats.

       -V
       --version
	   Display the version number of size.
