Qualifier

 

/ATTRIBUTES
   For I64 and Alpha linking, directs the linker to mark the cluster
   'cluster-name' with the indicated qualifier keyword value.
   Attributes set by this qualifier are only evaluated by the
   loader. This qualifier is used to build OpenVMS drivers. See
   Writing OpenVMS Alpha Device Drivers in C for guidelines for
   using this qualifier.
 

Qualifier Values


      RESIDENT
      Marks the cluster 'cluster-name' as RESIDENT so that the
      segment (I64) or image section (Alpha) created from that
      cluster has the RESIDENT flag set. This will cause the loader
      to map the segment or image section into non-paged memory.

      INITIALIZATION_CODE
      Marks the cluster 'cluster-name' as INITIALIZATION_CODE so
      that the segment (I64) or image section (Alpha) created from
      that cluster has the INITALCOD flag set. The initialization
      code will be executed by the loader. This keyword is
      specifically intended for use with program sections from
      modules SYS$DOINIT and SYS$DRIVER_INIT in STARLET.OLB.
