Greetings, I have a user who is porting an application from NOS/VE to Unix (specifically, IRIX (SGI)). He would like to be able manipulate the linking of his program on Unix as he is able to under NOS. Specifically, he would like to be able to tell the linker to satisfy unresolved symbol 'x' with symbol 'y'. This is being done in FORTRAN. He has a subroutine reference that he wants to override, so to speak, with the subroutine of his choice. Has anyone dealt with this aspect of porting before? Or is this a reason to stay with NOS and CDC? :-). I tried comp.sys.sgi, and got no response at all. Many thanks for your trouble.

I don't know about SGI machines specifically, but in the UNIX system I have there is a "-A" option to "ld" (the loader). This allows you to specify a pair of the form alias=symbol, causing all references to "alias" to be resolved by "symbol". I this this might be the capability you are looking for. Check the Silicon Graphics manuals for ld to see if this is supported. Marc Furon
