Compiler Option: -nolib


Do not include specific library(s).

Syntax:
-nolib < libname1 [, libname2 [, ... ] ] >

Parameters:
libname1, libname2, ...
Name (without name's extension) of each library to exclude.
fbrt0.o
fbrt0pic.o
Exclude the fb runtime library start-up code module

Description:
The -nolib compiler option allows excluding specific libraries when linking, no matter where it came from (default lib, #inclib, -l, objinfo...).
(more fine-grained control than -nodeflibs, and not only for default libraries)

This allows selectively blacklisting libraries and can be used to:
- remove unused dependencies when linking against shared libraries (when linking against static libraries via -l, the linker automatically skips unused libs, but not for shared libraries),
- override unwanted #inclibs (although arguably this is not the ideal solution for that, but just a last resort),
- disable only some default libs, instead of all as done by -nodeflibs:
For example, this could be used to specifically omit libtinfo.
Using -nodeflibs would omit a lot more (including fbrt0.o) which would have to be re-added manually again.
- remove only the fb runtime library start-up code module allowing replacement with a custom start-up module without affect any other libraries named in the link
