March 09, 2006 IMPLIB for system DLL's with JK's version | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|

I don't know what the DMC policy is but I think Jan Knepper's modified version of Implib (www.digitalmars.com/~jan/) should be folded into the regular distribution. The ability to append the @# (ie. @4, @8, ...) to functions is vital if you need to use some older "system" DLL's. A newbie might have a hard time without this tool. I used it to generate a .DEF file with the correct pre- and post-pend to the names ("_" and @#), and then used the regular IMPLIB to generate the import .LIB from the .DEF file. Note: For some reason the librarian listing command, "lib -l", did not work on the output. Thanks Jan! Just my $0.02. Andy C |
