[SOLVED] Is is possible to verify the linked functions that a dll is using through static library using dependency walker?

Is is possible to verify the linked functions that a dll is using through static library using dependency walker?

I am creating a dll that is using a static library. My problem is, when I am using this dll in a test application, I am getting the linking error for the function that is called from my dll. This function is defined in static library.

I am using this set up,

abc.lib  ---->  xyz.dll  ----> test_application

This test application is getting linking error for the function that is called from one of the exposed function from dll.

Now I wanted to verify whether I have properly compiled my dll with static library or not? I am using dependency walker, will it show any useful information or not? If not, any other useful tool for it.

Solution

Using nm command or elf utility we can understand the way the symbols are linked and being resolved. Broadly speaking there are 2 types of symbols based on the linkages, Weak & Strong.

Windows Equivalent of elf or nm commands:- Microsoft equivalent of the nm command
