static linking question

Brian_Murphy — Wed, 13 Feb 2019 16:48:15 GMT

I have a console program CONSOLE.EXE that calls routines in A.DLL, and A.DLL calls routines in B.DLL. I would like to eliminate the need to distribute B.DLL by embedding into A.DLL. How is that done? And if I want to embed A.DLL into CONSOLE.EXE how is that done?

Thanks,

Brian M.

You don't "embed a DLL". You

You don't "embed a DLL". You build a static library instead of a DLL and link the executable to the static library(ies). You can also "embed" B.DLL by building A.DLL so that it links to the B static library.

Ok thanks, Steve. I'll see

Ok thanks, Steve. I'll see what I can do with that.
