Frequently Asked Questions

What is Citation Linker?

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) | University Library | UW-...
Citation Linker is related to Find It (see What is Find It?, above). If you have a citation for an article and want to know if the library has access to the source periodical, typing the citation information into Citation Linker and clicking the button will search our online library databases as well as the online library catalog for that periodical.

How is the linker different from an obfuscator?

FAQs for Remotesoft
They are totally different things. An obfuscator provides limited code protection through modifying symbol names to confuse someone from understanding the decompiled code. Our linker is a tool to link assemblies together. Our linker is not an obfuscator, but it can be used in conjunction with an obfuscator to offer better protection since it can be used to eliminate system calls that are defined in the Microsoft .NET Framework class libraries.

Why is the linker a command line utility?

FAQs for Remotesoft
Our linker is designed to be seamlessly integrated into your build process. This cannot be done in a reliable and repeatable fashion if the linker depends only on a graphical user interface for operation.

What platforms does the linker support?

FAQs for Remotesoft
Since .NET does not run on WIN95, therefore, our linker does NOT support WIN95. Our linker currently does not support UNIX systems.

What is different about the linker ld(1)?

BSDi - ELF FAQ for BSD/OS 4.x, version 1.3
BSD/OS 4.0 uses the GNU binutils 2.8.1 linker. This linker is substantially different from the GNU linker that we provided in previous releases. For a full description, you may view the on-line documentation with 'info ld'. Here are some of the highlights: The -T flag to set the base address of a program has been changed. There are now separate -Ttext, -Tdata and -Tbss flags to set the addresses of specific segments. -T by itself means something completely different.

How does the dynamic linker work?

BSDi - ELF FAQ for BSD/OS 4.x, version 1.3
The dynamic linker /shlib/ld-bsdi.so is responsible for assembling the full, executable version of a program in memory, using pieces called dynamically linked shared libraries. Here is a quick overview of dynamic linking. When you build a program for dynamic linking, the compiler cc and static linker ld put special data structures into the ELF file. These include: A dynamic symbol table that contains the names and descriptions of symbols of interest to the dynamic linker.

Why can't the linker find "vga"?

Free Pascal - Knowledge base
This error typically looks like this: Free Pascal Compiler version 1.0.x [xxxx/yy/zz] for i386 Copyright (c) 1993-2000 by Florian Klaempfl Target OS: Linux for i386 Compiling test.pp Assembling test Linking test /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lvga test.pp(6,4) Warning: Error while linking Closing script ppas.sh 5 Lines compiled, 0.2 sec This error is not an error in the installation of FPC or FPC itself, but a missing Svgalib library in your unix install.

How can I organize my source code into smaller files, and avoid linker errors?

Updating the For Beginners forum FAQ - GameDev.Net Discussio...
What does "deprecated" mean? (really - the word itself is probably the sticking point on such error messages, and apparently noone has heard of a dictionary these days) The company where I work is currently looking for C++ and Python programming interns. PM me for info. EDIT: We are in Toronto and telecommuting is not feasible for what we are doing. There are currently only unpaid positions available.

What about the linker, the assembler and make?

Solaris 2 FAQ
Solaris ships with everything you need, except for the compiler. All this stuff lives in /usr/ccs/bin and /usr/ccs/lib. If you still can't find it, make sure you have the following packages installed on your system: for tools (sccs, lex, yacc, make, nm, truss, ld, as): SUNWbtool, SUNWsprot, SUNWtoo for libraries & headers: SUNWhea, SUNWarc, SUNWlibm, SUNWlibms SUNWdfbh, SUNWcg6h for ucb compat: SUNWsra, SUNWsrh

How does the linker and mini-deployment work?

FAQs for Remotesoft
NET programs are distributed in unit of assemblies, one assembly often refers to a few other assemblies. Our linker first loads the entry assembly, finds its entry point for an EXE file, or some public methods for a DLL file, it then recursively follows the calling graph of the MSIL code to link all required code together. The code might reside in the same assembly as the entry module, or in some referenced assemblies. During the walk, relevant classes and other entities are marked.

Can Ulrich's Resource Linker search the OPAC?

Ulrich's Resource Linker - Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Customized and local holdings, including print and microform titles, can be searched in the library's OPAC.

How can I find out where functions or variables have been placed in memory by the linker?

Frequently Asked Questions
You will see a list of groups each containing symbols of a particular type, such as functions, variables and labels. Within each of these groups will be listed each symbol and the address range it occupies in memory.

How do I tell the dynamic linker where to find shared objects?

BSDi - ELF FAQ for BSD/OS 4.x, version 1.3
When you run the dynamic linker, it gets the name of a shared library or shared object, and tries to find a corresponding full pathname. The process is similar to looking up the pathname to a program in the shell. As with the shell, you can use environment variables to control paths that the dynamic linker checks: The dynamic linker checks the LD_PRELOAD variable first. This variable may contain a list of colon or whitespace separated pathnames for shared libraries or shared objects.

edit] My Borland Linker complains about htmlhelp.lib! Why?

KWWidgets/FAQ - KitwarePublic
KWWidgets does not require the Microsoft HTML Help Library (htmlhelp.lib) to build but will search for it in order to provide some minor additional functionalities (like online help). Even if you are not using a Microsoft compiler, it is likely that a default HTML Help Library is already installed on your system, and KWWidgets is likely to find it. The problem is that the default htmlhelp.lib file is not in a format that the Borland Linker can understand.

Why am I getting a linker error to _mainCRTStartup under WIN32?

CMake FAQ - KitwarePublic
Why do I get this error: nafxcwd.lib(appcore.obj) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol ___argv
