NAME
       ctfconvert -- convert debug data	to Compact C Type Format data

SYNOPSIS
       ctfconvert [-gis] -L labelenv -l	label [-o outfile] object_file

DESCRIPTION
       The ctfconvert utility converts debug information from a	binary file to
       CTF (Compact C Type Format) data	and replaces the debug section of that
       file  with a CTF	section	called SUNW_ctf.  This new section is added to
       the input file, unless the -o option is present.	 You can also  opt  to
       keep the	original debugging section with	the -g option.

       The following options are available:

       -g	    Don't delete the original debugging	section.

       -i	    Ignore object files	built from other languages than	C.

       -L labelenv  Instructs  ctfconvert  to read the label from the labelenv
		    environment	variable.

       -l label	    Sets the label as label.

       -o outfile   Write the output to	file in	outfile.

       -s	    Use	the .dynsym ELF	section	instead	 of  the  .symtab  ELF
		    section.

EXIT STATUS
       The ctfconvert utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
