No there is no dynamic linking in EFI. Communicating between modules is done via Protocols. A protocol is a C data structure, that often contains member function that is named by a GUID and sits on a handle. You want to go after the systems primary console and that can be found in the EFI_SYSTEM_TABLE that is passed in to your entry point. The UefiBootServicesTableLib will place it in a global for you so you want to look at: gST-> ConIn gST->ConOut gST->StdErr If the system has a console splitter this will be the primary console, if there is no console splitter then this is still the primary console. So for example (if my memory is good...): gST->ConOut->OutputString (gST->ContOut, L"Hello World/r/n"); > Tony > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Live Security Virtual Conference > Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and > threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
