• gprof - Displays profiling information.

• nlmconv - Converts object code into an NLM.

• nm - Lists symbols from object files.

• objcopy - Copies and translates object files.

• objdump - Displays information from object files.

• ranlib - Generates an index to the contents of an archive.

Visual Studio provides the following command-line utilities for viewing or manipulating build output:

• LIB.EXE is used to create and manage a library of Common Object File Format (COFF) object files.
  It can also be used to create export files and import libraries to reference exported definitions.

• EDITBIN.EXE is used to modify COFF binary files.

• DUMPBIN.EXE displays information (such as a symbol table) about COFF binary files.

• NMAKE reads and executes makefiles.

• ERRLOOK, the Error Lookup utility, retrieves a system error message or module error message based on the value entered.

• XDCMake. A tool for processing source code files that contain documentation comments marked up with XML tags.

• BSCMAKE.EXE (provided for backward compatibility only) builds a browse information file (.bsc)
  that contains information about the symbols (classes, functions, data, macros, and types) in your program.
  You view this information in browse windows within the development environment.
  (A .bsc file can also be built in the development environment.)
