Hi Consider the following C code: int myfoo(void) { ... } int foo(void) { ... } If I look at the string table (.strtab) of the object file after compiling this C code I will see only the string "myfoo", while the symbol table will have two entries for two functions but different index of the function name. The first will point to the letter 'm' and the second to 'f'. This is a neat optimization. The question is can it be disabled so I will get two entries in the string table, one for each function? Thx, pM0n
