Dynamic Linking in a Microcomputer Environment.

Abstract

The design of a dynamic linker for use with modern microcomputers is introduced. The basic concepts for resolving symbolic interprocedure references at execution time are reviewed, and the means to support shared data and (pure) procedures are explained. The mechanism (modules and data bases) suitable for microcomputers without the hardware features previously considered necessary for dynamic linking are described. The major implications for the associated operating system and language translators are identified. (Author)
