Are you planning to add support for "-F" and "-framework" to ELF linkers?

Thanks Saleem/James. On Tue, Mar 26, 2019 at 5:15 AM Saleem Abdulrasool <compnerd at compnerd.org> wrote: > Yes, I don't think that supporting all options is entirely possible.

...=> add foo.a to the link #pragma comment(lib, "c:\\foo.a") => add c:\foo.a to the link .. but there is no existing ELF linker command line option that maps to this behaviour; so, it is better to have a separate representation. Also, given that it seems that autolinking is the only usecase currently, the proposed .autolink section is a simpler (e.g. binary tools can dump the section without needing special rules), and more efficient (bytes needed to convey the information) format than .linker-options. > > >> On Mon, Mar 25, 2019 at 8:47 AM Rui Ueyama <ruiu at google...
