My static zlib.lib is 66K in release mode. It's a build I made with just the stuff I've used. For example, I don't use the file stuff. I have no idea how much bigger this lib makes the EXE though.

The dynamic one with all the functions I'm using is 10.5K.
Mr Ekted - Mon Apr 11, 2005 6:55 pm
Post subject:
Dynamic means the EXE will use an external DLL.

But it still needs a lib to link to, right? I looked in zlib.lib with a hex editor, and it seems it's just a bunch of function names and offsets.
Mr Ekted - Mon Apr 11, 2005 8:11 pm
Post subject:
A dynamic lib simply lists the exports that are in the DLL. This allows the linker to know that they exist, and to place the appropriate references in the EXE header so the loader knows to load zlib.dll and what functions to find/resolve.

OK, that's what I thought. So... any clue what's going on? The source itself is 160K, if that's around the range you're looking for.

You use anything gay like STL?
Cyan~Fire - Tue Apr 12, 2005 3:55 pm
Post subject:
I don't use STL, but I use one template class that I wrote. I guess that does take up a bit of room, as it's used for 4 different classes, so 4 different copies.
But it's nowhere near STL which includes around 10 templates for one you use in your code.

Off topic, but still Stupid Windows API.
Any way to catch a return sent to an edit control other than by subclassing? Of course, only common controls send NM_RETURN (not to mention WM_NOTIFY in general, which only makes command processing 50 times easier).
