    <p>I know that source code can be compiled and linked to shared/static library or ELF executable files. And when program runs, it loads into memory and creates a process image according to ELF format. But I am not sure how programs loading shared libraries. How a linker looking for symbols in extern libraries and how the .a archive works. What else should I know if program runs on 64 bit OS?</p> <p>I am trying to draw a whole picture of it. Can someone give a general talk about the whole thing and gives references/documents/llinks so I can study them one by one.</p> <p>Thanks in advance.</p> <p>I think my question can be described as:</p> <p>Under Linux, How C++ source code becomes executable files or static/dynamic libraries. And how a program get loaded into memory when it runs. In GREATE details!</p> <p>And how many tools I can use to examine/manipulate the Linux binary files(executable files and libraries)? I know some as “nm" "readelf".</p>

    1. COI'm no expert in that area, but you will probably get much better answers if you give a little background about what you are trying to accomplish.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
