- Subject: About linker options an rebasing
I remember an old discussion on cygwin-apps that suggested to add
-Wl,--enable-auto-import -Wl,--enable-auto-image-base
as linker options to avoid some problems with rebasing (adding the above
should avoid to rebase, if I remember correctly).
But suppose that for an application foo.exe we have:
$ cygcheck foo.exe
C:\cygwin\usr/local/emacs/bin/b2m.exe
C:\cygwin\bin\cygwin1.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ADVAPI32.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntdll.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\KERNEL32.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\RPCRT4.dll
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Secur32.dll
i.e. 'cygwin1.dll' is the unique Cygwin DLL interested: Should we
continue to add the above options?
Or it has not sense any more?
Thanks,
Angelo.
