macOS Linking ELFs with a linker script

[brodeur235]

I really need to be able to link object files with a specific linker script. Linux does it fine, but for some reason the version of ld that XCode installs doesn't support the "-T /file/path" option (to specify a linker script).... Help would be very much appreciated,

First of all the ld provided by Apple is not GNU ld and as such has different properties. Secondly I would be surprised if it even managed to link correctly, Mac OS X does not use ELF binaries at all.

I've had a look through the Mac OS X ld documentation but unfortunately I couldn't see anything that would be of help to you. I would suggest though that you would most likely have better results if you compiled GNU ld from source and tried that instead (add a prefix to the binary name though otherwise you could get the two confused).
