obj+lib = exe
that means when you call a procedure which is inside your lib, the linker will copy that procedure and make the exe !
sorry if i'm not clear enough Wink

The linker copy the whole procedure code or just make a calling code to it?

It copies the entire object file from the lib. If you have a huge object file (something.obj) or a static lib with a huge object file inside, the resulting executable (myprogram.exe) will also be huge.
