Havok physic using many libs:

hkBase.lib ,hkCompat.lib

hkGeometryUtilities.lib, hkInternal.lib

hkSceneData.lib , hkSerialize.lib

hkVisualize.lib , hkpConstraintSolver.lib

hkpCollide.lib ,hkpDynamics.lib

hkpInternal.lib, hkpUtilities.lib

hkpVehicle.lib , hkcdCollide.lib

hkcdInternal.lib

How I understood lib its something like mscoff format.
How using or attaching this files in fasm code ?

I found this (revolution writed)

Code:

macro link objfile {
  virtual at 0
    theobj:: file objfile
  end virtual
  ;linker code goes here ;what is mean ? I must write realization?
  ;...
}

format ...

mov eax,0x12345678
invoke DoWhatIWantWhenIWant,eax
invoke ExitProcess,0x87654321

link 'MyUberObj.obj'

Yes. You write some while/end while if/else/end if to do the linking.

ok. I compiled this obj file:

Code:

format MS COFF
 
extrn '__imp__MessageBoxA@16' as MessageBox:dword
 
section '.text' code readable executable
 
 public demo
 
 demo:
    push    0
    push    _caption
    push    _message
    push    0
    call    [MessageBox]  ;MessageBox empty value = 0
    ret
 
section '.data' data readable writeable
 
 _caption db 'Win32 assembly',0
 _message db 'Coffee time!',0

When I do link obj file in my main program.
How I put in [MessageBox] correct address from my pe gui 4.0 program ?

If you want to support recursive linking then there are entire books that have been written to explain all the various complications and problems that you might encounter.

For simple leaf non-recursive linking, you can parse the DLL file at assembly time within fasm quite easily.

The "real" solution is just to use the normal external linker program, that is its job, that is what it is for. And you make your code linkable instead of executable.

Do you want to do fully recursive linking? Because that is what you are suggesting with this question. I would recommend against it unless you want to spend a lot of time on it.

Ok.
How I understood linker do steps:
1)find text '__imp__'
2)load library and GetProcAddress MessageBoxA
3) put address to '__imp__'

Erm. Are you doing runtime linking, or compile time linking?

I thought you wanted to to static linking at compile time. But now you are asking about runtime linking. Question

Then you shouldn't be trying to link the system DLLs. Things like MessageBox should be linked at runtime.

obj or lib file its compiled code.
In this files not exist text 'call [MessageBox]'. Exist asm opcodes.
And I must something put address MessageBox from section import dll in pe gui 4.0 main code, to lib data.
This is my problem.

Then you need to refer to the name of this function, which the linker will provide to it after the import is formed. This name is __imp__MessageBoxA.

Or you can create your own lib file that will export other names for the imported functions from the dll file.

if I do

Code:

macro link objfile {
  virtual at 0
    theobj:: file objfile
  end virtual
  ;linker code goes here ;what is mean ? I must write realization?
  ;...
}

Start: call fun1

fun1: link 'mscoff.obj'

IDA Pro show dd 77h dup(0) in fun1

Either this or make source files on fasm with extern for existing libs. Such files have already been created for dll, but they are not available for lib.
