Do development systems include a linker?
Yes, all Micro C embedded compilers include a linker. The linker is specifically designed for use with embedded systems, and therefore operates differently from many other linkers: All of the libraries and linkable modules are stored in the form of assembly language source files instead of a binary “object” format. These may be hand-crafted (as in the case of the libraries), or the assembly output of the C compiler.
