Dear All
Can you please let me know if the .o file extension comes from Unix/
GCC object files and how to open them ?
Thank you

Yes, .o is a compiled but not linked program. There are a number of
compilers for various languages that will spit out a .o file.

You can't open them; they're not functional programs, merely the pieces
of one. You can find out what functions it contains using 'nm'. ie:

nm object.o

Thanks for your reply . I want to try for my own . My server is
Solaris 8 and the target is running VxWorks 5.4.2 . Can you please let
me know what application packages do I need to install on my Solaris 8
to do the job ? I want to write my own function and put it inside
the .o compiled file and upload to the target to run.

You can't do that unless you have the original source file.
