How to use nasm to generate a dynamic linked exe on windows?

Basically I know we can use this to create a static linked exe on windows 32 bit:

nasm -fwin32 test.s
cl.exe test.obj /link libcmt.lib

But how to create a dynamic-linked exe from the obj file nasm generated?

I haven't done this, but you can try replacing libcmt with msvcrt. – Edan 9/1, 2014 at 2:30

@MikeC Yes, it works! Actually I have tired msvcrt.dll, which says "can not find mscvrt".. – Bergin 9/1, 2014 at 2:51

The .LIB is named "msvcrt"; the DLL is named according to the version of Visual C in use -- e.g. msvcrt90.dll – Edan 10/1, 2014 at 23:24
