The BINDER linkage editor

The BINDER linkage editor combines modules to form a loadable unit. This unit is known as a link-and-load module (LLM). BINDER stores link-and-load modules as type L library elements in a library.

BINDER can use the following modules to create a link-and-load module:

• Object modules (OMs) and prelinked object modules (main modules) from a library or from the temporary EAM object module file

• Link-and-load modules (LLMs) that were created by the compiler or BINDER and come from the same library.
