3 # link.sh -- try linking Vim with different sets of libraries, finding the
4 # minimal set for fastest startup. The problem is that configure adds a few
5 # libraries when they exist, but this doesn't mean they are needed for Vim.

11 # Warning: This fails miserably if the linker doesn't return an error code!
13 # Otherwise this script is fail-safe, falling back to the original full link
14 # command if anything fails.
16 echo "$LINK " >link.cmd
20 # If auto/link.sed already exists, use it. We assume a previous run of
21 # link.sh has found the correct set of libraries.
23 if test -f auto
/link.
sed; then
24 echo "link.sh: The file 'auto/link.sed' exists, which is going to be used now."
25 echo "link.sh: If linking fails, try deleting the auto/link.sed file."
26 echo "link.sh: If this fails too, try creating an empty auto/link.sed file."
29 # If linking works with the full link command, try removing some libraries,
30 # that are known not to be needed on at least one system.
31 # Remove auto/pathdef.c if there is a new link command and compile it again.
32 # There is a loop to remove libraries that appear several times.
35 # - Can't remove Xext; It links fine but will give an error when running gvim
37 # - Don't remove the last -lm: On HP-UX Vim links OK but crashes when the GTK
38 # GUI is started, because the "floor" symbol could not be resolved.
