Linker

Linker

In this case, the target code, that is, the machine code that has not yet been connected, and the executable machine code There is a difference between. The linker also links the target program and the code used for the standard library functions, and links the target program and the resources provided by the computer's operating system (for example, storage allocation programs and input and output devices). Interestingly, the linker is completing one of the earliest major activities of the compiler (this is also the usage of the word "compilation", which is constructed by collecting different sources). The connection process is extremely dependent on the operating system and the processor.
