|
||
|
|
||
|
<p><a name="index-g_t_0040code_007bweakref_007d-directive-519"></a>This directive creates an alias to the target symbol that enables the symbol to
|
||
|
be referenced with weak-symbol semantics, but without actually making it weak.
|
||
|
If direct references or definitions of the symbol are present, then the symbol
|
||
|
will not be weak, but if all references to it are through weak references, the
|
||
|
symbol will be marked as weak in the symbol table.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The effect is equivalent to moving all references to the alias to a separate
|
||
|
assembly source file, renaming the alias to the symbol in it, declaring the
|
||
|
symbol as weak there, and running a reloadable link to merge the object files
|
||
|
resulting from the assembly of the new source file and the old source file that
|
||
|
had the references to the alias removed.
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The alias itself never makes to the symbol table, and is entirely handled
|
||
|
within the assembler.
