The Microsoft Library Manager (LIB) creates and maintains standard
libraries. Standard libraries are collections of compiled or
assembled object modules that provide useful routines and data
to a program at link time.
LIB works with several kinds of files:
■ Object files in Microsoft Relocatable Object-Module Format
(OMF), based on the Intel 8086 OMF
■ Standard libraries in Microsoft library format
■ Import libraries created by IMPLIB
See: ◄IMPLIB► (in Miscellaneous Utilities Help)
■ 80286 XENIX archives and Intel-style libraries
Library files usually have a .LIB filename extension.
