I have a problem with a library of routines, which are pre-linked for use with the 3L family of compilers, but give errors when you use them with the Inmos "3L compatible" compilers. A t8c/linkt (3L) cycle works fine, but a t8c/ilink/iboot (Inmos) cycle gives an error during iboot (Invalid tag: LONG), which (according to the manual) indicates a problem during linking. Has anyone had problems of this kind and know a solution for them ? The whole thing raises the question of linker file formats and object file formats. Does anyone know if programs exist that translate one object code to the other ? Which of the object file formats is likely to be standardized in the future ? There are also less severe differences between 3L and Inmos in the map files, but the standardization of the object file format looks the most urgent to me.
