In a map file, a <modulename>_TEXT will be produced for each logical
code segment in your program. Since small and compact model programs
have only one code segment, you only get one logical segment, _TEXT.
Medium- and large-model programs, however, will have a separate
logical segment for each object module in the program, and thus produce
a <modulename>_TEXT for each logical segment.
To generate a map file, use the /M option with LINK or the /Fm option
with CL.
The following is an example map file generated when compiling a
program with two object modules in small-memory model:
Start Stop Length Name Class
00000H 016EAH 016EBH _TEXT CODE
...
The following is an example map file generated when compiling the same
program with two object modules in large-memory model:
Start Stop Length Name Class
00000H 0000DH 0000EH MAPL_TEXT CODE
0000EH 00023H 00016H MAP2_TEXT CODE
00024H 01B2CH 01B09H _TEXT CODE
...
MAPL_TEXT and MAP2_TEXT come from the files MAPL.OBJ and MAP2.OBJ,
respectively. The _TEXT is the Microsoft run-time library and any
third-party libraries.
