For a more detailed description about the linking stage you should refer to the manual and info pages of gcc. GCC doesn't link on its own. There is a process called collect2 (called from gcc) which is a wrapper around the native linker as I remember. You can see the exact arguments to these gcc processing stages by using gcc -v $* BYE INGO
