Hi, I would like to extract information about used symbols in object files. The objective is that we have some pretty old libraries most of which have been marked as deprecated over time and we would like to know which of the symbols/libraries we can safely remove (and which program still use this old code). The general idea is to parse the symbols in the libraries and check which of them are no longer used anywhere. I know that dumpbin can extract information from object files, but I would prefer code that parses the object files directly. MSDN indicates that the object files are in COFF format so maybe there is something that I can use? Regards, tv |
