executable
What, if any, are the implications of compiling objects with gcc -fPIC flag if they get used in executables?
I am putting together a makefile for a project i am working on. I have an executable and a shared library in the project. Both use some of the same source files which get compiled separately into object files. To be able to use these objects in the shared library I need to use the -fPIC (position independent code) flag in gcc. Are there ...

But how can I convert them to an absolute address at runtime? For example: .text:402BE620 Which address is that at runtime? How can I convert that number into a pointer? Some bac...
How to run unmanaged executable from memory rather than disc
I want to embed a command-line utility in my C# application, so that I can grab its bytes as an array and run the executable without ever saving it to disk as a separate file (avoids storing executable as separate file and avoids needing ability to write temporary files anywhere). I cannot find a method to run an executable from just it...
c# program works from cmd prompt but not run seperately?
I would post a snippet, but I honestly have no idea what part of my code could possibly be doing this. The program is sizable, I don't want to make you all wade through it. What kinds of things could possibly be the cause of this? Everything works perfectly when called from the command prompt: "readoo.exe". But when I click the exe in it...

I am creating an application (VS2005, C++ Forms application) that is supposed to work on many different machines that won't have any version of Visual Studio and I am wondering what I should worry about.

What's the advantage of having an 8-letter process?
If you run Sticky Note in Windows 7,its process, is called StikyNot.exe. Several other Windows processes keep their process names under 8 letters. Why do they do that? What is the advantage? Are they just clinging to the past? Or should everybody be publishing 8-letter executables? ...
Is there an ideal size for executable modules on Windows?
I've been taking note of the .exe file size of many applications. I saw that Visual Studio 2005 has an .exe size of 453KB, and VS2008 of 1.04MB because they divide the application into many parts (.exe + many .dll files). I saw also that MS Outlook has a very large .exe file (11.8MB) while MS Word is very small (398KB)! After ponderi...

Protecting executable from being patched
My logic of APT (Anti-Paching Technology) is as follows... 1) Store on the MSSQL server the md5 hash of the executable for protection. 2) Perform an md5 comparison (within my application startup) the hash found on the server, with the executable itself. 3) If comparison fails exit application silently. And all these above before it i...
How can I create an executable to run on a certain processor architecture (instead of certain OS)?
So I take my C++ program in Visual studio, compile, and it'll spit out a nice little EXE file. But EXEs will only run on windows, and I hear a lot about how C/C++ compiles into assembly language, which is runs directly on a processor. The EXE runs with the help of windows, or I could have a program that makes an executable that runs on a...
