Size of a library and the executable?

There is additional bookkeeping information in the . Lib file that is not needed for the final executable. This information helps the linker find the code to actually link.

Also, debug information may be stored in the . Lib file but not in the . Exe file (I don't recall where debug info is stored for objs in a lib file, it might be somewhere else).

A static library on both Windows and Unix is a collection of . Obj/. O files.

The linker looks at each of these object files and determines if it is needed for the program to link. If it isn't needed, then the object file won't get included in the final executable. This can lead to executables that are smaller then the library.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
