Hi Tristan,
currently the alpha/vax vms backend in split in 4 files:
vms-gsd.c
vms-hdr.c
vms-misc.c
vms-tir.c
I think it doesn't really make sense to have 4 files for such a
minor backend. The total size
is about 150KB, which isn't very large (250KB for elf32-ppc.c,
350KB for elf64-ppc.c for examples).
I plan to put all these bits into vms-eobj.c (obj/eobj is the name
of the vms vax/alpha object file format,
but because this name is too common I prefer to keep the vms-
prefix).
Any objections/comments ?
If the current set of four files is not broken, why change them ?
I don't object to the change if it is going to serve a useful
purpose - for example making maintainence easier - but I do object
if theer is no real benefit.
Ok. There are currently no real benefits, so I won't do the change.
Tristan.
