  10 DESCRIPTION
  11        The lintdump utility dumps the contents of one or more lint objects.
  12        This is chiefly useful when trying to understand the cause of
  13        unexpected or obtuse lint warnings (see EXAMPLES), but can also be used
  14        to find differences between lint objects across builds or releases, or
  15        to debug problems in lint itself.
  16 
  17        A lint object is a binary file (typically suffixed with ".ln")
  18        constructed from a C source file via the "-c" option to lint(1).
  19        Multiple lint objects may be combined into a lint library object
  20        (typically prefixed with "llib-l" and suffixed with ".ln") using the
  21        "-o" option to lint.  (As a convenience, lint "-o" allows a lint

 248 
 249        Note that -r option removes spurious differences that would otherwise
 250        arise from different absolute paths to the same source file, and the -i
 251        option removes spurious differences due to ID generation inside lint.

 256 NOTES
 257        This utility is provided as an interim solution until a stable utility
 258        can be bundled with Sun Studio.  As such, any use of this utility in
 259        scripts or embedded inside programs should be done with knowledge that
 260        subsequent changes will be required in order to transition to the
 261        stable solution.
 262 
 263        The lint object file format does not have a way to represent bitfields.
 264        As such, bitfield size information cannot be displayed by lintdump.
