Actually I'm not waiting. I asked the question this week because I will
need the answer in a little while, but there are still a few open issues
for me to resolve apart from that.
Which brings me to where I currently stand. In the snow :-)
Seriously :
- I got my lib2.dll to work (in the emulator)
- this involved some, but not all of what you described, and some more
- libexpat-1.dll and libgcc_s_sjlj don't work yet, reason to be
determined
The latter point is currently under research.
What I did this far :
- hide bss in another section
* caused a bug with debug info not being initialised,
which I think is not entirely solved yet. The bug was
caused by a workaround for doing things in the right
order inside ld, a workaround which my situation
appears to have broken.
- get .edata and .idata hidden inside .rdata
* with the right content
* involving stuff that needs to be done in the right
order inside ld, this still needs work as I just said
- add some alignment bits (I aligned them on 16-byte boundaries, and
then stuff started to work better)
I never looked into your item about having the same ordinals as
Microsoft.
Hope I'm not forgetting anything.
Danny
