llvm-ranlib - Generate index for LLVM archive
=============================================
SYNOPSIS
--------
**llvm-ranlib** [--version] [-help] <archive-file>
DESCRIPTION
-----------
The **llvm-ranlib** command is similar to the common Unix utility, ``ranlib``. It
adds or updates the symbol table in an LLVM archive file. Note that using the
**llvm-ar** modifier *s* is usually more efficient than running **llvm-ranlib**
which is only provided only for completness and compatibility. Unlike other
implementations of ``ranlib``, **llvm-ranlib** indexes LLVM bitcode files, not
native object modules. You can list the contents of the symbol table with the
``llvm-nm -s`` command.
OPTIONS
-------
*archive-file*
Specifies the archive-file to which the symbol table is added or updated.
*--version*
Print the version of **llvm-ranlib** and exit without building a symbol table.
*-help*
Print usage help for **llvm-ranlib** and exit without building a symbol table.
EXIT STATUS
-----------
If **llvm-ranlib** succeeds, it will exit with 0. If an error occurs, a non-zero
exit code will be returned.
