Hello everyone,




For dllimport KB from Microsoft,

It is mentioned,



--------------------
If 'func1' exists in another DLL, the linker can't resolve this directly because it has no way of knowing what the address of 'func1' is.
--------------------



My question is, if we are using implicit linking, the address of import function should be in the import library (.lib file) of the DLL and since the import library is as an input parameter to linker, the linker should know the address at link time?




thanks in advance,
George
