ABSTRACT:
A method, system, architecture and apparatus for generating a shared library for a pervasive device target platform which can accommodate relocatable data. A tool chain in furtherance of this purpose can be arranged in accordance with the present invention to include a compiler programmed to compile source code into a compiled object and a linker programmed to link the compiled object into a linked object using a relocatable data segment. In this regard, in a preferred aspect of the invention a linker configuration file can be included for use in the linker which specifies the use of the relocatable data segment in lieu of a position independent data segment. The tool chain further can be arranged to include a relocation data extraction tool programmed to extract relocation data from the linked object and to dispose the relocation data in a relocation data file configured for disposition in a pervasive device.
