Wow, thanks for all the interesting replies. In the mean time here is what
I came up with:
ld -r -b binary -o binary.o helloworld.txt
#include <stdint.h>
extern char _binary_helloworld_txt_start[];
extern char _binary_helloworld_txt_end[];
void* helloworld(uintptr_t* i) {
uintptr_t a = (uintptr_t)&_binary_helloworld_txt_start;
uintptr_t b = (uintptr_t)&_binary_helloworld_txt_end;
(*i) = b - a;
return &_binary_helloworld_txt_start;
}
gcc -c -o test.o test.c
ar rcs libtest.a test.o binary.o
program testresources;
type
TExternResource = function(out Size: UIntPtr): Pointer;
function ResString(Res: TExternResource): string;
var
P: Pointer;
I: UIntPtr;
begin
P := Res(I);
SetLength(Result, I);
Move(PChar(P)[0], PChar(Result)[0], I);
end;
function helloworld(out Size: UIntPtr): Pointer; cdecl; external;
{$linklib test}
var
S: string;
begin
S := ResString(@helloworld);
WriteLn(S);
end.
