We're discussing the concept of a "standalone binary"; you seem
to think that means a binary image emitted by a linker and meant
to run under a hosted environment, like an operating system.  It
does not.

with the program's entry point at the CPU's reset address.  I
suppose that's not "standalone" if you count a ROM burner as
part of "loading" it.

*shrug*  Not my problem if you haven't dealt with many embedded
systems.

Yes, they are.

Standalone as you are well aware in the sense of doesn't require an
interpreter
or VM to run on the OS and contains CPU machine code.

So what about a binary that is dynamically linked with a shared
object?  That requires a runtime interpreter nee linker to bind
its constituent parts together before it's executable.  And what
if it makes a system call?  Then it's no longer "standalone", as
it necessarily relies on the operating system to perform part of
its function.

Standalone in the sense that the opcodes in the binary don't need to be

Yeah, no, that's not what anybody serious means when they say
that.

usually in userspace.  Why do you think that a compiler that
generates bytecode for some virtual machine is any different
from a compiler that generates object code for some CPU?

Nope.

You don't seem to be able to recognize that the compilation step

Compiling is not the same as converting. Is a javascript to C converter a

Yes, of course it is.  So is the terminfo compiler, and any
number of other similar things.  The first C++ compiler, cfront
emitted C code, not object code.  Was it not a compiler?

It's very odd that you seek to speak from a position of
authority when you don't even know who most of the major people
in the field are.
