#)Linker is a program that takes one or more objects generated by a compiler and combines them into a single executable program.

#)Loader is the part of an operating system that is responsible for loading programs from executables (i.e., executable files) into memory, preparing them for execution and then executing them.

Linker and loader in c language?

There is no such thing in the C language, but it is true that operating systems have a component called loader which loads binary program-files (whose source may be written in C language) into the memory and prepares them to the execution.

What is object linker?

In computer science, a linker or link editor is a program that takes one or more objects generated by a compiler and combines them into a single executable program.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LinkerThis is a response to the question, "What is object linker?". The appropriate question would have been, "What is a linker or link editor in the field of Computer Science and Software Engineering?". Note that a linker is called a loader when it refers to a run-time process. Linkers refer to compile-time processes.


What is the relationship between compiler interpreter loader and linker?

Compiler - Translates High level language (C, C++ etc.) and generates Object code (machine readable but not directly executable)Interpreter - Same as compiler but do that interactively (simply saying line by line). Interpreted languages don't usually require a linker, and employ a loading process different from that of a compiled program: the interpreter itself is linked and loaded like a compiled program (and in all probability is a compiled program), but the program interpreted by the interpreter is typically loaded through interpreter-specific means.Linker - Connects the compiler generated object code with library code to generated independent executable (like in C, you dont write how printf() works, linker add the code for printf() function in your program)Loader - Load the machine readable codes in memory to be executed. This step typically includes relocating the code output by the linker to a specific memory location into which the program was being loaded.
