=head1 NAME
llvm-ranlib - Generate index for LLVM archive
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<llvm-ranlib> [--version] [--help] <archive-file>
=head1 DESCRIPTION
The B<llvm-ranlib> command is similar to the common Unix utility, C<ranlib>. It
adds or updates the symbol table in an LLVM archive file. Note that using the
B<llvm-ar> modifier F<s> is usually more efficient than running B<llvm-ranlib>
which is only provided only for completness and compatibility. Unlike other
implementations of C<ranlib>, B<llvm-ranlib> indexes LLVM bytecode files, not
native object modules. You can list the contents of the symbol table with the
C<llvm-nm -s> command.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over
=item F<archive-file>
Specifies the archive-file to which the symbol table is added or updated.
=item F<--version>

=item F<--help>
Print usage help for B<llvm-ranlib> and exit without building a symbol table.
=back
=head1 EXIT STATUS
If B<llvm-ranlib> succeeds, it will exit with 0. If an error occurs, a non-zero
exit code will be returned.
