Shared Libraries in Windows and Linux - Ofek Shilon - C++ on Sea 2023

--- Shared Libraries in Windows and Linux - Ofek Shilon - C on Sea 2023 Linking is one of those things we don't bother thinking about until something goes wrong - and when it inevitably does, we are all too often lost. In this talk we'll dive deep into the linking and loading operations. This will include low level inspection of binaries structure, clarification of static vs dynamic linkage, and particular emphasis on Linux vs. Windows idiosyncrasies. If you ever caught yourself blankly staring at opaque linker error messages, this talk is for you. --- Slides: Sponsored by think-cell: --- Ofek Shilon A Mathematics MA by training, but a 20Y C developer, writer and speaker in both the Linux and MS universes.
