<description lang="en" title="Generate .def files for DLLs" > |
| 10 |
<paragraph>pexports can extract information from DLLs to create |
| 11 |
corresponding .def files that list the symbols available in each DLL. |
| 12 |
.def files can then be used by dlltool (mingw32-binutils) to generate |
| 13 |
import libraries. pexports is similar to gendef, but the two tools |
| 14 |
differ in how each determines the "decoration" (or calling convention) |
| 15 |
appropriate for each symbol, since that information is not always |
| 16 |
available directly from the DLL's symbol table. pexports can use a C |
| 17 |
pre-processor to extract the information, provided you have the |
| 18 |
appropriate header files. gendef locates the symbol's code in the DLL, |
| 19 |
and uses a disassembler to determine that information. Neither method |
| 20 |
is foolproof, so both tools are provided. |
| 21 |
</paragraph> |
| 22 |
<paragraph>Note that in order for pexports to detect the calling |
| 23 |
convention, you must specify on the command line the headers to parse. |
| 24 |
If the symbols are not declared in those headers, then the proper |
| 25 |
decorations cannot be computed. Originally written by Anders |
| 26 |
Norlander, it now supports both 32bit and 64bit DLLs and EXEs thanks |
| 27 |
to Tor Lillqvist. |
