  2. libffi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libffi

    The open-source implementation of the Java Platform Standard Edition uses libffi to bridge between the interpreter and native code for Zero-Assembly port. Dalvik Dalvik is the virtual machine which runs the Java platform on Android mobile devices. libffi is used on Android ports for which no custom bridging code has been written.

  3. Dynamic loading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_loading

    Dynamic loading is a mechanism by which a computer program can, at run time, load a library (or other binary) into memory, retrieve the addresses of functions and variables contained in the library, execute those functions or access those variables, and unload the library from memory.

  4. Java Native Access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_Native_Access

    The JNA library uses a small native library called foreign function interface library to dynamically invoke native code.The JNA library uses native functions allowing code to load a library by name and retrieve a pointer to a function within that library, and uses libffi library to invoke it, all without static bindings, header files, or any compile phase.

  5. Mach-O - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mach-O

    The byte sequence 0x72 0x8C 0x01 sets the location to the third segment load command address and adds 140 to the address. Operation code 0x90 to 0x9F binds the current set location to the set symbol name and library ordinal. Increments the current set location by the size 4 bytes for a 32-bit Mach-O binary or increments the set address by 8 for ...

  6. Shared library - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shared_library

    A shared library or shared object is a computer file that contains executable code designed to be used by multiple computer programs or other libraries at runtime.. When running a program that is configured to use a shared library, the operating system loads the shared library from a file (other than the program's executable file) into memory at load time or runtime.

  7. List of platform-independent GUI libraries - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_platform...

    This is a list of notable library packages implementing a graphical user interface (GUI) platform-independent GUI library (PIGUI). These can be used to develop software that can be ported to multiple computing platforms with no change to its source code.

  8. Dynamic linker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_linker

    In computing, a dynamic linker is the part of an operating system that loads and links the shared libraries needed by an executable when it is executed (at "run time"), by copying the content of libraries from persistent storage to RAM, filling jump tables and relocating pointers.

  9. Language binding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_binding

    In programming and software design, a binding is an application programming interface (API) that provides glue code specifically made to allow a programming language to use a foreign library or operating system service (one that is not native to that language).
