| 5 | SYNOPSIS |
| 6 | -------- |
| 7 | |
| 8 | |
| 9 | **llvm-ranlib** [--version] [-help] <archive-file> |
| 10 | |
| 11 | |
| 12 | DESCRIPTION |
| 13 | ----------- |
| 14 | |
| 15 | |
| 16 | The **llvm-ranlib** command is similar to the common Unix utility, ``ranlib``. It |
| 17 | adds or updates the symbol table in an LLVM archive file. Note that using the |
| 18 | **llvm-ar** modifier *s* is usually more efficient than running **llvm-ranlib** |
| 19 | which is only provided only for completness and compatibility. Unlike other |
| 20 | implementations of ``ranlib``, **llvm-ranlib** indexes LLVM bitcode files, not |
| 21 | native object modules. You can list the contents of the symbol table with the |
| 22 | ``llvm-nm -s`` command. |
| 23 | |
