Review: One of a kind book about the code building 'black box' view - Being a member of my company's engineering team with the longest tenure, I've been recently given a hint by my company's management to get prepared to take on the role of software architect/integrator. Never being comfortable dealing with compiler/linker issues I've started searching for anything that could help me to boost my knowledge. My more experienced friends provided a few good initial tips. First, they mentioned "Linkers and Loaders". The Drepper article was their second suggestion. Finally, they mentioned a fairly recent book written by a guy named after an Italian city ("Milan something"). Despite its obvious greatness, the "Linkers and Loaders" book wasn't tailored for my EE/telecom/software background. I simply lacked the insight into many initial concepts. I've also read the Drepper article and kind of understood fair amount of it. The things that still bothered me were the looming lack of my hands-on experience and the lack of a good starting point. Finally, I've got this book. Bingo! It gave me exactly what I needed - the whole course starting with precise explanation of initial concepts, garnished with simple code examples. The screen printouts helped me get an idea of what to expect as a result. Above all, the exquisite and sometimes funny illustrations were powerful in explaining the concepts. The book has several qualities rarely found elsewhere: First, to the best of my knowledge, it is the only book that provides a 'black box' overview of the C/C++ building process. It does not go too far into the depths of compiling/linking/loading, but all the explanations provide a good overview of the field. Second, it is obviously written by a professional for the professionals.The author obviously knows how the engineering hands-on developers think. He points out the most potent and the most operational details which once absorbed can keep you afloat at all times. Third, it provides a huge amounts of relevant, hard-to-find information. Some of the chapters (e.g. duplicate symbols handling) are not found elsewhere. Finally, if for no other reason, the quick reference information in the last few chapters alone is worth having this book on the shelf. A must have for any serious professional in the field!
Review: Should be required reading for C/C++ programmers - A gold mine of technical information on compilers/linkers/loaders and how C/C++ affect them. Easily one of the best technical books in terms of content that I've read in probably 5 years. Despite the great content and walkthroughs, it suffers from two main issues: 1. It's primarily Linux-specific, though a lot of the concepts apply to Windows. 2. There are a plethora of typographical errors. There are lots of missing spaces between words in tables, missing or extra articles (like "the"). Diagrams are readable but are sometimes fuzzy, probably due to being enlarged. However, I've only found one error effecting the technical content (".bas" instead of ".bss"). This book is still incredible and I would make it required reading for teams producing or consuming shared or static libraries. Already gotten my money's worth out of this book multiple times over. A second edition of this book with the above issues addressed would likely become a long-lived classic.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of a kind book about the code building 'black box' view
*by S***E on September 23, 2015*

Being a member of my company's engineering team with the longest tenure, I've been recently given a hint by my company's management to get prepared to take on the role of software architect/integrator.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Should be required reading for C/C++ programmers
*by J***T on March 17, 2023*

A gold mine of technical information on compilers/linkers/loaders and how C/C++ affect them. Easily one of the best technical books in terms of content that I've read in probably 5 years. Despite the great content and walkthroughs, it suffers from two main issues: 1. It's primarily Linux-specific, though a lot of the concepts apply to Windows. 2.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Maybe useful for some people, but could be better
*by J***L on March 6, 2024*

This book was all over the map. It wasn't in depth in ways I wanted it, and provided a lot of information I didn't think belong. For example, it spends a lot of time discussing specific tools for multiple platforms (Unixes and Windows). This made this book feel more like a reference manual thank something you might want to read through. I could see some people benefiting from this approach. But I didn't like it.
