Hello
I am from a project primarily aimed for x86.
We strive to have our codebase compilable with more than one compiler/linker,
but unfortunately there is a problem.
LD requires exported functions in .def to be decorated, like:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
instead of simply
Foobar
Fastcallfoo
The symbol decoration is not compatible with, for example, MSVC's linker,
requiring us to maintain .def files with and without symbol decoration for each
library (and we have quite a bit of them).
I do not know much about the internal workings of compilers and linkers, and
have been unable to find out why this issue exists.
Why does LD require this .def symbol decoration, and could it perhaps be
possible to fix?
