size

SIZE(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   SIZE(1)

NAME

       size - print the size of the sections in an object file

SYNOPSIS

       size [ option ... ] [ object ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       Size  (without  the -m option) prints the (decimal) number of bytes required by the __TEXT, __DATA and __OBJC segments.	All other segments
       are totaled and that size is listed in the `others' column.  The final two columns is the sum in decimal and hexadecimal.  If  no  file	is
       specified, a.out is used.

       The options to size(1) are:

       -      Treat the remaining arguments as name of object files not options to size(1).

       -m     Print the sizes of the Mach-O segments and sections as well as the total sizes of the sections in each segment and the total size of
	      the segments in the file.

       -l     When used with the -m option, also print the addresses and offsets of the sections and segments.

       -x     When used with the -m option, print the values in hexadecimal (with leading 0x's) rather than decimal.

       -arch arch_type
	      Specifies the architecture, arch_type, of the file for size(1) to operate on when the file is a universal file.	(See  arch(3)  for
	      the  currently know arch_types.)	The arch_type can be "all" to operate on all architectures in the file.  The default is to display
	      only the host architecture, if the file contains it; otherwise, all architectures in the file are shown.

SEE ALSO

       otool(1)

BUGS

       The size of common symbols can't be reflected in any of the numbers for relocatable object files.
