--remove, --no_remove
Enables or disables the removal of unused input sections from the image.
Usage
An input section is considered used if it contains an entry point, or if it is referred to from a used section.
By default, unused section elimination is disabled
when building dynamically linked libraries (DLLs) or shared
objects. Use --remove
to enable
unused section elimination.
Use --no_remove
when debugging to retain all input sections in the final
image even if they are unused.
Use --remove
with the --keep
option to retain specific
sections in a normal build.
Default
The default is --remove
.
The default is --no_remove
only if you specify --base_platform
or --bpabi
with --dll
.
