Initialized Global Variables and .data Section
Initialized global variables are stored in the .data
section of the PE file, which is a dedicated section used to hold global data that needs to have a specific initial value when the program starts executing. In programming languages like C and C++, global variables can be initialized like this:
int g_GlobalVariable = 42;
int main() {
printf("The value of the global variable is: %d\n", g_GlobalVariable);
return 0;
}
