GenerateLibDB
When analysing specific Symbian OS binaries for imported DLLs, a list of ordinal numbers per DLL that each binary links to is produced. These ordinal numbers must be mapped to their corresponding function names before any migration information may be extracted from the Migration Guide Index.
This process may take a long time and, therefore, it is advisable that you run a tool called GenerateLibDB
before running MigrationCheck
. GenerateLibDB
produces a text file listing all the mappings of ordinal numbers and function names within a specified Symbian OS version.
The tool can be run at any time, and the text file produced can be used as input to the MigrationCheck
tool.
NOTE: If you do not run GenerateLibDB
before starting MigrationCheck
, it will be run as part of the comparison process, thus slowing down the comparison.
GenerateLibDB
command line syntax
The command line syntax used for GenerateLibDB
is shown below.
>GenerateLibDB.pl -p <platform> -r <directory> -o <filename> [-h]
You can run the tool from anywhere, as long as EPOCROOT
is set to point to the correct Symbian OS version.
These are the arguments used with the GenerateLibDB
tool.
