<p><code>dlltool</code> is used to create the files needed to create dynamic
|
||
|
|
link libraries (DLLs) on systems which understand PE format image
|
||
|
|
files such as Windows. A DLL contains an export table which contains
|
||
|
|
information that the runtime loader needs to resolve references from a
|
||
|
|
referencing program.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The export table is generated by this program by reading in a
|
||
|
|
<samp>.def</samp> file or scanning the <samp>.a</samp> and <samp>.o</samp> files which
|
||
|
|
will be in the DLL. A <samp>.o</samp> file can contain information in
|
||
|
|
special ‘<samp>.drectve</samp>’ sections with export information.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<blockquote>
|
||
|
|
<p><em>Note:</em> <code>dlltool</code> is not always built as part of the
|
||
|
|
binary utilities, since it is only useful for those targets which
|
||
|
|
support DLLs.

|
|

|
|
<p><code>dlltool</code> reads its inputs, which can come from the <samp>-d</samp> and
|
||
|
|
<samp>-b</samp> options as well as object files specified on the command
|
||
|
|
line. It then processes these inputs and if the <samp>-e</samp> option has
|
||
|
|
been specified it creates a exports file. If the <samp>-l</samp> option
|
||
|
|
has been specified it creates a library file and if the <samp>-z</samp> option
|
||
|
|
has been specified it creates a def file. Any or all of the <samp>-e</samp>,
|
||
|
|
<samp>-l</samp> and <samp>-z</samp> options can be present in one invocation of
|
||
|
|
dlltool.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>When creating a DLL, along with the source for the DLL, it is necessary
|
||
|
|
to have three other files. <code>dlltool</code> can help with the creation of
|
||
|
|
these files.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The first file is a <samp>.def</samp> file which specifies which functions are
|
||
|
|
exported from the DLL, which functions the DLL imports, and so on. This
|
||
|
|
is a text file and can be created by hand, or <code>dlltool</code> can be used
|
||
|
|
to create it using the <samp>-z</samp> option. In this case <code>dlltool</code>
|
||
|
|
will scan the object files specified on its command line looking for
|
||
|
|
those functions which have been specially marked as being exported and
|
||
|
|
put entries for them in the <samp>.def</samp> file it creates.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>In order to mark a function as being exported from a DLL, it needs to
|
||
|
|
have an <samp>-export:<name_of_function></samp> entry in the ‘<samp>.drectve</samp>’
|
||
|
|
section of the object file. This can be done in C by using the
|
||
|
|
asm() operator:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
||
|
|
<pre class="smallexample"> asm (".section .drectve");
|
||
|
|
asm (".ascii \"-export:my_func\"");
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
int my_func (void) { … }
|
||
|
|
</pre></div>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The second file needed for DLL creation is an exports file. This file
|
||
|
|
is linked with the object files that make up the body of the DLL and it
|
||
|
|
handles the interface between the DLL and the outside world. This is a
|
||
|
|
binary file and it can be created by giving the <samp>-e</samp> option to
|
||
|
|
<code>dlltool</code> when it is creating or reading in a <samp>.def</samp> file.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The third file needed for DLL creation is the library file that programs
|
||
|
|
will link with in order to access the functions in the DLL (an ‘import
|
||
|
|
library’). This file can be created by giving the <samp>-l</samp> option to
|
||
|
|
dlltool when it is creating or reading in a <samp>.def</samp> file.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>If the <samp>-y</samp> option is specified, dlltool generates a delay-import
|
||
|
|
library that can be used instead of the normal import library to allow
|
||
|
|
a program to link to the dll only as soon as an imported function is
|
||
|
|
called for the first time. The resulting executable will need to be
|
||
|
|
linked to the static delayimp library containing __delayLoadHelper2(),
|
||
|
|
which in turn will import LoadLibraryA and GetProcAddress from kernel32.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p><code>dlltool</code> builds the library file by hand, but it builds the
|
||
|
|
exports file by creating temporary files containing assembler statements
|
||
|
|
and then assembling these. The <samp>-S</samp> command-line option can be
|
||
|
|
used to specify the path to the assembler that dlltool will use,
|
||
|
|
and the <samp>-f</samp> option can be used to pass specific flags to that
|
||
|
|
assembler. The <samp>-n</samp> can be used to prevent dlltool from deleting
|
||
|
|
these temporary assembler files when it is done, and if <samp>-n</samp> is
|
||
|
|
specified twice then this will prevent dlltool from deleting the
|
||
|
|
temporary object files it used to build the library.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Here is an example of creating a DLL from a source file ‘<samp>dll.c</samp>’ and
|
||
|
|
also creating a program (from an object file called ‘<samp>program.o</samp>’)
|
||
|
|
that uses that DLL:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="smallexample">
|
||
|
|
<pre class="smallexample"> gcc -c dll.c
|
||
|
|
dlltool -e exports.o -l dll.lib dll.o
|
||
|
|
gcc dll.o exports.o -o dll.dll
|
||
|
|
gcc program.o dll.lib -o program
|
||
|
|
</pre></div>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p><code>dlltool</code> may also be used to query an existing import library
|
||
|
|
to determine the name of the DLL to which it is associated. See the
|
||
|
|
description of the <samp>-I</samp> or <samp>--identify</samp> option.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
