Link command assembly: Search path arguments are collapsed · case 02

Search path arguments are collapsed.

Member previewVariant 2 · 3 implementations · 6 checks per implementation

Case contract

Emit object arguments first, then each archive in declared order preserving repeats, then frameworks as paired flags, then search directories as paired flags, then the output pair.

Why this case matters

An offline model of link command assembly, suitable for testing build and release tooling without external services.

One recorded failure

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.

Boundary fixture	Actual	Expected	Outcome
fixture 2	`["b.o", "a.o", "x.a", "y.a", "x.a", "-framework", "Core", "-framework", "UI", "-L/lib a", "-L/lib b", "-o", "my app"]`	`["b.o", "a.o", "x.a", "y.a", "x.a", "-framework", "Core", "-framework", "UI", "-L", "/lib a", "-L", "/lib b", "-o", "my app"]`	Failed
