OBJECT

Sections-segment keyword that specifies a function. Multiple OBJECT keywords control the order of functions in the output file.

OBJECT (function, sourcefile.c)
  

function

Name of a function.

sourcefile.c

Name of the C file that contains the function.

If an OBJECT keyword tells the linker to write an object to the output file, the linker does not write the same object again, in response to either the GROUP keyword or the '*' wildcard character.
