For link_executable() we also need a parameter export_symbols. (An executable could export symbols to be able to be extended by plug-ins.)
But not on windows... (?)
Have you ever tried to use 'quikview' (German: Schnellansicht) with a executable or a dll? It shows you all exported symbols.
For example most Borland C++ compiled executable export a hook for the debugger.
netscape.exe exports about 8000 symbols. (see attached file for some examples) To programm plugins, which call functions in the main program, you link against the main program as you would do to link against a dll.
(file: netscape_exports.txt)
