Recently I discovered a problem on the midas and I fixed it, the problem now is that I want to use MidasLib not the midas.dll and with the source code I’m only able to build the DLL.
The source is C++ and I have very few knowledge with it. I know the MidasLib.pas uses internally midas.obj, so I need to create it to statically link the midas to my application. How to do it on C++ Builder? (XE)
When you compile C++ code, the compiler creates an .OBJ file for each .CPP/.C file you have and saves them somewhere on your computer. What happens in most cases is that one would run a linker on all of those .OBJ files to join them into a single EXE or DLL, but in your case you don’t need those results. Your C++ Builder is, like most programming IDEs, automatically doing both the compilation and linking.
If you just want the .OBJ, you need to find where in your project folder C++ Builder is placing its .OBJ files (called its “intermediate output”, typically, as it is the intermediate step between compilation and linking). So you must have a source file called midas.cpp or midas.c that produces a corresponding output file called midas.obj.
