XCOFF testing



Hi guys,

Does anyone have the ability to test XCOFF object files by passing them
through a linker or some sort of verification utility?

Alternatively, does anyone know of any utilities which can verify XCOFF
object files.  I have access to SUN Sparcs and HPs.  Unfortunately, at
the moment, the SUNs use ELF format and I'm not sure about HPs.

I can dump the contents of the XCOFF file I generate but that doesn't
guarantee compliance with the standard.  A third party tool to verify
that the object files are OK is necessary.

BTW, I'm using the XCOFF object file format now instead of the ELF
format.  Metrowerks next linker release will support XCOFF (or so
they've said).  I can give the XCOFF definition file and support
stuff to anyone else who is also outputting to XCOFF object files.
