This article explains the memory layout of a program, the compilation and linking processes, and compares static and dynamic libraries, highlighting how static linking duplicates code while dynamic linking shares libraries to reduce disk and memory usage.
This article explains why reusable code should be packaged into libraries, compares static (.a) and dynamic (.so) libraries on Linux, and provides detailed commands, code examples, and troubleshooting steps for building and linking both types of libraries in C++ projects.
WBBlades3.0 is a visualized iOS development toolkit that offers unused class detection for Objective‑C and Swift, fast package‑size analysis of static libraries, point‑to‑point crash‑log parsing with symbol restoration, and static‑library dependency inspection, all designed to improve developer efficiency.
This guide explains Linux file I/O fundamentals, covering file concepts, standard streams, system calls like open and dup2, file descriptor allocation, redirection, the FILE structure, inode layout, hard and soft links, and the creation and usage of static and dynamic libraries, all illustrated with code snippets and diagrams.
This article provides a step-by-step guide for Java programmers on using gcc, covering the preprocessing, compilation, assembly, and linking stages, and demonstrates how to create and use static and dynamic libraries in C with practical code examples.
This article explains the principles of static and dynamic linking on iOS, details how symbol tables, relocation entries, and GOT/PLT work, and demonstrates a practical static‑library hooking technique using relocation tables and the fishhook library.
The team accelerated the QMusic live‑streaming SDK by converting large source modules and external pods into pre‑compiled binaries, tuning Xcode build settings, and automating CI caching, slashing full‑build times from roughly 400 seconds to 40 seconds and packaging duration from over 50 minutes to three minutes.
This article provides a comprehensive overview of the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC), covering its origins, evolution, core compilation stages, essential command‑line options, and advanced capabilities such as building shared and static libraries and mixed‑language projects.
This article details Ctrip's experience of adopting Swift for iOS development, covering the language's evolution, statistical adoption, static‑library integration, ObjC‑Swift mixed compilation, module stability with swiftinterface files, CI pipeline adjustments, and strategies for seamless ObjC‑Swift interoperation.
This article describes how 58.com analyzes the code and resource size of each business component in its iOS app by parsing linkmap files and static libraries, builds version‑wise statistics, and compares component volume changes across releases to support efficient parallel development and app slimming.
The NetEase Media Advertising SDK was refactored to meet source‑code and static‑library integration needs by splitting into Core and Demo modules, converting Core into a Development Pod, centralizing build settings in xcconfig files, and adding CocoaPods post‑install hooks that automate header copying and configuration, enabling seamless use across the News client and other products.
This guide explains Linux library types, naming conventions, and step‑by‑step commands for creating static (.a) and shared (.so) libraries, managing symbolic links, checking dependencies, runtime search paths, dynamic loading, and using GNU Libtool.
This article examines the concept, benefits, and practical implementation of A/B testing in iOS development, covering design considerations, code organization patterns such as selector caching, strategy pattern, and protocol dispatchers, as well as related build‑time concerns like static‑library merging and CocoaPods subspecs.
This guide walks through the ELF format, the compilation‑assembly‑linking pipeline, and step‑by‑step creation and usage of static (.a) and dynamic (.so) libraries on Linux, including gcc, ar, ldconfig, ldd and runtime loading with dlopen.
