10.3 Cross-Reference Listing Example

These terms defined appear in the cross-reference listing in Example 1:

Symbol Name of the symbol listed
Filename Name of the file where the symbol appears
RTYP The symbol's reference type in this file. The possible reference types are:
STAT The symbol is defined in this file and is not declared as global.
EDEF The symbol is defined in this file and is declared as global.
EREF The symbol is not defined in this file but is referenced as global.
UNDF The symbol is not defined in this file and is not declared as global.
AsmVal This hexadecimal number is the value assigned to the symbol at assembly time. A value may also be preceded by a character that describes the symbol's attributes. Table 10-1 lists these characters and names.
LnkVal This hexadecimal number is the value assigned to the symbol after linking.
DefLn The statement number where the symbol is defined.
RefLn The line number where the symbol is referenced. If the line number is followed by an asterisk (*), then that reference can modify the contents of the object. A blank in this column indicates that the symbol was never used.

Table 10-1 Symbol Attributes in Cross-Reference Listing

Character Meaning
' Symbol defined in a .text section
" Symbol defined in a .data section
+ Symbol defined in a .sect section
- Symbol defined in a .bss or .usect section

Example 1 is an example of cross-reference listing.
