Invoking the binder

All invocation commands invoke the binder using the c89 utility, so all binder options must follow the syntax supported by the c89 utility. Standard libraries required to bind your program are controlled by the sysobj, syslib, and exportlist attributes in the configuration file.

The specified object files are processed by the binder to create one executable file. Invoking the compiler with one of the invocation commands, automatically calls the binder unless you specify one of the following compiler options: -E, -c, -P, -qsyntaxonly, -qpponly, or -#.

All input and output files supported by the c89 utility are valid for all invocation commands.
