Hello, I'm trying to create my own library file and include it into my project 1)I've written two function in separate files abc.A51 and xyz.A51 2)These files contain only 1 functions each abc() and xyz() respectively 2)Then I created a project called "MyLib" 3)Then I included both abc.A51 and xyz.A51 in the project 4)Then I compiled it to a "library" 5)So I obtained the library file MyLib.lib and also abc.obj, xyz.obj 6)Now I create another project "MyProj" and a main.c file My question is how do I include the library file MyLib.lib into this main.c file in the new project? Note that originally my function was in assembly... so i didnt have header file for function prototype. Also, If my main.c file uses only one of the functions ( example abc() ) will my final object file take less space compared to if i used both the functions ( abc() and xyz() ) Thank You
"how do I include the library file MyLib.lib into this main.c file in the new project?" You don't. You include the library in the Project using the same 'Add File to Group' dialogue that you used for the main.c file - but select 'Library' as the file type "i didnt have header file for function prototype." You will need to create one! "If my main.c file uses only one of the functions ... will my final object file take less space compared to if i used both the functions" Yes - that is the whole point of a Library!
Thank You!! :D
