Linking files

[Giridhara R P <rpgiri at cdotb dot ernet dot in>]

Hii..
 
this is a static function    |          1.c has main function
  in 2.c file		     |
  			     |          1.c file	
			     |		 extern void fun();
static void fun()            |           main()
{ 			     |		{
printf("hello\n");	     |		fun();
}			     |		}
------------------------------------------------------------------

if i  compile(do not link) 2.c file,(cc -c 2.c) gcc creats 2.o (object
file ELF).
and its symbol table contains

name   : integer(index to string table)
value  : integer (offset to  section)
size   : 0 (unknown=0, character=1 or integer=4)
binding: local (because static local=0, global=1,weak=0)
type   : function


my question:

if i change this binding value in symbol table from "local"(value=0) to
"global"(value=1), is it possible to link 1.c and 2.o
(cc 1.c 2.o).
