MATCH(1)

NAME
match - search for symbols in a map file

SYNOPSIS
match map-file call-file

DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the match command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

Match determines which symbols from a given set (call-file) are present in a given map file.

The map-file should contain output from nm (which extracts information from object files). It must not contain any blank lines or header information (such as the name of the object file); this means you may need to strip the first few lines of nm output from the map-file.

The call-file should contain a list of symbols (such as function calls made by a program), one per line.

This utility will find which of the symbols in call-file are present in map-file and write them to standard error, one per line, in the order in which they appear in call-file.

This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.
