Constant (computer programming)
In computer programming, a constant is a value that cannot be altered by the program during normal execution, i.e., the value is constant.

Data segment
In computing, a data segment (often denoted.data) is a portion of an object file or the corresponding virtual address space of a program that contains initialized static variables, that is, global variables and static local variables.

DWARF
DWARF is a widely used, standardized debugging data format.

Dynamic linker
In computing, a dynamic linker is the part of an operating system that loads and links the shared libraries needed by an executable when it is executed (at "run time"), by copying the content of libraries from persistent storage to RAM, and filling jump tables and relocating pointers.
New!!: Object file and Dynamic linker · See more »
Executable
In computing, executable code or an executable file or executable program, sometimes simply referred to as an executable or binary, causes a computer "to perform indicated tasks according to encoded instructions," as opposed to a data file that must be parsed by a program to be meaningful.
New!!: Object file and Executable · See more »
Executable and Linkable Format
In computing, the Executable and Linkable Format (ELF, formerly named Extensible Linking Format), is a common standard file format for executable files, object code, shared libraries, and core dumps.

File format
A file format is a standard way that information is encoded for storage in a computer file.
New!!: Object file and File format · See more »
GNU Project
The GNU Project is a free-software, mass-collaboration project, first announced on September 27, 1983 by Richard Stallman at MIT.

Intel Memory Model
In computing, Intel Memory Model refers to a set of six different memory models of the x86 CPU operating in real mode which control how the segment registers are used and the default size of pointers.

Library (computing)
In computer science, a library is a collection of non-volatile resources used by computer programs, often for software development.
New!!: Object file and Library (computing) · See more »
Linker (computing)
In computing, a linker or link editor is a computer utility program that takes one or more object files generated by a compiler and combines them into a single executable file, library file, or another 'object' file.

New!!: Object file and Memory management · See more »
Memory management unit
A memory management unit (MMU), sometimes called paged memory management unit (PMMU), is a computer hardware unit having all memory references passed through itself, primarily performing the translation of virtual memory addresses to physical addresses.

Memory segmentation
Memory segmentation is the division of a computer's primary memory into segments or sections.
New!!: Object file and Memory segmentation · See more »

Porting
In software engineering, porting is the process of adapting software for the purpose of achieving some form of execution in a computing environment that is different from the one that a given program (meant for such execution) was originally designed for (e.g. different CPU, operating system, or third party library).
New!!: Object file and Porting · See more »
Position-independent code
In computing, position-independent code (PIC) or position-independent executable (PIE) is a body of machine code that, being placed somewhere in the primary memory, executes properly regardless of its absolute address.
New!!: Object file and Position-independent code · See more »
Profiling (computer programming)
In software engineering, profiling ("program profiling", "software profiling") is a form of dynamic program analysis that measures, for example, the space (memory) or time complexity of a program, the usage of particular instructions, or the frequency and duration of function calls.

Programmer
A programmer, developer, dev, coder, or software engineer is a person who creates computer software.
New!!: Object file and Programmer · See more »
Relocation (computing)
Relocation is the process of assigning load addresses to position-dependent, but locatable code of a program and adjusting the code and data in the program to reflect the assigned addresses.
