15.1 Purpose of This Chapter
A library file is a collection of relocatable object files which you can pull out as needed. Library files
are convenient for placing frequently used modules.
When a module is called from within a program, the linker searches the library file, extracts only the
required relocatable object file, and loads it in the executable format file.
The library manager is a utility for managing library files. It can create library files and add, delete,
replace, and search for relocatable object files.
This chapter explains how to use the library manager.
