Reducing Storage Space with strip(1)

Reducing Storage Space with strip(1)

The strip(1) command removes the symbol table and line number information from object files, including archives. Thereafter, no symbolic debugging access is available for that file. The purpose of this command is to reduce file storage overhead consumed by the object file. Use this command on production modules that have been debugged and tested. The effect is nearly identical to using the -soption of ld.

You can control the amount of information stripped from the symbol table by using the following options:

To

Use this

option

 

 

 

Strip line number information only; do not strip any

-l

symbol table information.

 

 

 

Do not strip static or external symbol information.

-x

 

 

32-bit mode only: Reset the relocation indexes into the

-r

symbol table. This option allows strip to be run on

 

relocatable files, in which case the effect is also to strip

 

only symbolic debugging information and unloadable

 

data.

 

 

 

Print the version of the strip command to stderr.

-V

 

 

The -land -xoptions are synonymous because the symbol table contains only static and external symbols. Either option strips only symbolic debugging information and unloadable data.

If there are any relocation entries in the object file and any symbol table information is to be stripped, strip issues a message and terminates without stripping the specified file unless the -roption is used.
