how linkers are linking .obj files (in detail with programming)
-
i'm now designing a linker for a software language..,for that i need to know about the linker structure..,how .obj files are linked to create .exe file(PE format file)... any help..,thanx n advance..:((:(( mirraa
Wow This is non trivial. The MS Linker expects to see .OBJ, .DLL or .LIB files (amongst others) as input. If you create a valid .OBJ or .DLL file then it will link fine. Creating these files (as a compiler does) requires a lot of intricate code and is a significant part of any language compiler. Microsoft document this in great detail in their MS COFF dicumentation (available online) http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/system/platform/firmware/PECOFF.mspx[^] Bear in mind that this now includes 32-bit and 64-bit support.
