静态库和共享库之间的区别是什么?

我使用Eclipse,有几个项目类型,包括静态库和共享库?其中一种比另一种有优势吗?

共享库最显著的优点是,不管有多少进程在使用这个库,内存中只加载一份代码。对于静态库,每个进程都有自己的代码副本。这可能导致严重的内存浪费。

静态库的一个优点是所有东西都捆绑到应用程序中。因此,您不必担心客户端系统上是否有正确的库(和版本)可用。

在所有其他答案中,有一件事还没有被提及,那就是脱钩:

让我来谈谈我一直在处理的一个真实世界的生产代码:

一个非常大的软件,由>300个项目(visual studio)组成,主要构建为静态库,最后所有链接在一个巨大的可执行文件中,你最终会遇到以下问题:

-链接时间过长。你可能会有超过15分钟的链接,比如10秒的编译时间 -有些工具在处理这么大的可执行文件时是非常困难的,比如内存检查工具,它们必须检测代码。你可能会陷入被视为傻瓜的极限。

更有问题的是软件的解耦:在这个真实的例子中,任何其他项目都可以访问每个项目的头文件。因此,对于一个开发人员来说,添加依赖项非常容易;它只是包括标题,因为链接在最后将允许waws找到符号。它以可怕的循环依赖和完全混乱而告终。

使用共享库,需要做一些额外的工作,因为开发人员必须编辑项目构建系统来添加依赖库。我发现共享库代码往往提供更简洁的代码API。

简化:

静态链接:一个大型可执行文件 动态链接:一个小的可执行文件加上一个或多个库文件(Windows上是.dll文件,Linux上是.so文件,macOS上是.dylib文件)

A static library is like a bookstore, and a shared library is like... a library. With the former, you get your own copy of the book/function to take home; with the latter you and everyone else go to the library to use the same book/function. So anyone who wants to use the (shared) library needs to know where it is, because you have to "go get" the book/function. With a static library, the book/function is yours to own, and you keep it within your home/program, and once you have it you don't care where or when you got it.
