DLL ordinals, .lib and .exp files

[fenugrec]

Hi, I'm working on a winCE 4 binary that imports DLL functions by ordinals, say from COREDLL.DLL, MFCCE400.DLL. The latter is fine since the CE SDK includes a mfcce400.pdb which I was eventually able to process and use. However, for coredll.dll, the SDK only has a .lib and .exp file, which AFAIK should be sufficient to match ordinals to function names, but I'm not sure how to get that information into ghidra.

• importing the .lib as I would a .dll isn't really a solution : the .lib being a container file, I don't see how to process the whole thing. Loading in "batch mode" is useless , "filesystem mode" is impractical (it lists hundreds of unnamed components which I could select manually).
• importing the .exp file : ghidra identifies it as a COFF file with the correct architecture, but doesn't find exports or any symbols.

My knowledge is currently very rusty here, but try running the CreateExportFileForDLL.java GhidraScript with your analyzed DLL open in Ghidra.

thanks, I actually did that for mfcce400.dll , but in the case of coredll ... I haven't been able to find that file yet !

I eventually found a compatible version of coredll.dll, with its PDB (that currently cannot be loaded however, c.f. #7100 ) , so this became an non-issue, but I'm still interested to know if there's way to extract the same information from the .exp or .lib files.
