Is it possible to export a function by ordinal ?,
Would love to have control over that😁

Not sure what do you mean for "to export a function by ordinal". Can you illustrate the expected behavior?
Maybe you meant the same ordinals in export table using the order of the definitions in src? But I remember this is already so

[yuval7451]

In c or cpp you can create a definition file which will state your exports, you can specify the function name and right after it the ordinal it is exported to, I would be nice if in the dllexport attribute you will be able to specify a ordinal or via a different settings file, the main usage here is for having more control over the exported functions other then the order they appear in your code,

Oh, I see. Why not.
.def will be a bit weird in dotnet environment, so either attributes or some option in our configuration.

Also, never had to avoid names in my practice for C++ but why also not to allow optionally skip the names. By the way, are you trying to reduce the size or some obfuscation, or?

Today it's not possible. But this feature will be considered later. Thanks for the suggestion. Thanks for using!
