Does Coff2omf convert static libs or only linking libs?
If I apply "link /lib /convert xxx.lib" to a Coff lib, it's equal that this lib
is in New Coff format or in old Coff format?

Thanks

I don't understand your question.

It convertes from the Microsoft version of Coff, if that's what you mean.

Can I convert static libs in COFF format (not linking lib for DLL) with Coff2OMF? If a lib is in old COFF format, can I convert that with "link /lib /convert xxx.lib"? How do I know if a lib it's in old COFF format or new COFF format? Thanks.

Most of the time it will work. It's mostly intended for use with import libraries.
 If a lib is in old COFF format, can I convert that with "link /lib
/convert
 xxx.lib"?
I don't know what you mean by "old" or "new" coff format. COFF2OMF works on the Microsoft version of COFF.
 How do I know if a lib it's in old COFF format or new COFF format?


 Thanks.
