To display command line help, enter:

coff2omf

COFF2OMF converts the publicly exported symbols in the COFF import library into a corresponding set of symbols in the OMF import library. COFF2OMF enables C++Builder users to link to Microsoft and other third-party DLLs that use the COFF format. COFF2OMF does not convert .OBJ files.

Run the COFF2OMF tool on a COFF import library created for a specific DLL, and use the resulting import library to link OMF format EXEs and DLLs to the COFF DLL.

Command Line Option | Description
-q | Quiet mode. Converts without writing tool and copyright information to standard output.
-v | Dumps selected symbols. Dumps the converted symbols to standard output, which can be redirected to an output file.
-h or -? | Displays help.
-r | Removes (deletes) output file if empty. Deletes the output file if there is an error and the conversion results in an empty file.
-lib:xx | Specifies options for OMF import library generation. The xx options can be: ms — Allow entries that have MS C++ name mangling. The default is No. st — Normalize names instead of aliasing MS stdcall mangling. ca — Don't perform MS cdecl aliasing. Default is to alias.
