Convert static windows library to dll

2019-01-11 14:53发布

问题:

I have a library contains a bunch of static *lib files, I wish to access them from JNA (a Java library that allows one to dynamically call `dll's from JAVA Code), so is there a way to magically change static lib to dll?

Code was compiled using Visual studio (hope that is relevant), and I also have appropriate header files.

I do not have access to source code, also I would like to do it using only free (as in beer) tools.

回答1:

I'm not aware of anyb tools that will do this automatically, but the process is to create a DLL project and add your libraries to the project. For each function in the header file:

int SomeLibFunc( int x, int y );

you would need to create and export your own function in the DLL;

int MyFunc( int x, int y ) {
   return SomLibFunc( x, y );
}

The process is quite mechanical, and you may be able to knock up a script using something like perl to create the DLL source files.



回答2:

Assuming you don't have access to the source, you can simply create a wrapper DLL that exports the functions you need and delegates to the static library.



回答3:

I did as anon suggested, I did an automatic converter (someone suggested just putting _ddlspec(export) before declaration and compiling dll with this header would work -- well it didn't -- maybe i did something wrong -- I'm Plain Old Java Programmer ;)):

it basically parses header files and turns:

  SADENTRY SadLoadedMidFiles( HMEM, USHORT usMaxMidFiles, VOID * );   

to:

 __declspec(dllexport) SADENTRY DLL_WRAPPER_SadLoadedMidFiles(HMEM param0, 
            USHORT usMaxMidFiles, VOID* param2){
      return SadLoadedMidFiles(param0, usMaxMidFiles, param2);
  }

Here is the code (most probably its Regexp abuse, but it works), gui part depends on MigLayout:

    package cx.ath.jbzdak.diesIrae.util.wrappergen;

    import net.miginfocom.swing.MigLayout;

    import javax.swing.*;
