Subject: How is cygwin1.dll linked in?
Date: Fri, 19 Nov 2021 14:38:26 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <AM0PR01MB4755F5C69DD4BADBB229297B8D9C9@AM0PR01MB4755.eurprd01.prod.exchangelabs.com> (raw)
I built the base Cygwin (really, just cygwin1.dll` and then went to compile
a test problem. I did not see an import library for cygwin1.dll. so I am of
the opinion there is "magic" for doing this. Is that magic the .idata section?
I _think_ the .data section is what passed on imported functions to the DLL
and adds it to the run time dependencies of the executable, but I am not
sure of this.
Any help on this matter would be appreciated.
Tom
