What is a dynamic linker?
Dynamic Linker is a part of a computer operating system that connects and loads individual shared libraries for a specific executable file on your computer. Shared library files for executable files include code files and other resources needed to use the program. These files are necessary to start programs; Without them, applications simply cannot work as expected. The way the function of the dynamic linker differs depending on the use of the operating system.
The shared library file is a file that the program needs to operate. Without accessing these files, the program will not be able to run as the programmer intended. Before loading the program, these files are included on the hard drive along with all other files in the computer system, but after the final user click on the executable file (.exe), the operating system loads the library files required by the program. The operating system then moves these files to random access memory (RAM), enable the program,To make access to them quickly and efficiently during operation. It then binds shared library files with a executable file and connects them in the "mind" of the computer, keeps them associated while the program runs.
If the computer is running, the dynamic linker is active. Every time the end user loads the program, he repeats the task of locating the required shared libraries and move them to the computer memory. While the operating system contains only one Dynamic Linker iteration, this iteration is sufficient to process all programs running on your computer.
The way the dynamic linker function is dependent on the operating system. For example, the procedure that Dynamic Linker works for the Windows® operating system is different from the OS® Used Method. While in Windows® the dynamic Linker is part of the operating system, in Mac OS® the operating system is actually considered a separate entity. Although withThe implementation differs between operating systems, the function of the dynamic linker remains constant across the board.
