DLL to Lib

Fed up with distributing a lot of DLLs with your applications? Fed up with the errors such as "DLL not found"? OK, let DLL to Lib help you.

DLL to Lib is a magical tool which can convert a DLL file into its equivalent static library file. After that, you can replace the original DLL file with the static library file, rebuild your application, and distribute it without the DLL file!

The most exciting thing is that the conversion process DOES NOT require any source codes of the DLL files! All works are done from binary to binary. DLL to Lib will rebuild programming interfaces identical to the export functions in the DLL and reconstruct the necessary symbol tables, string tables and reference tables from the DLL to make a valid static library for you!

Incredible? Moreover, DLL to Lib integrates many utilities, including the "Import Library Reference Information Generator", the "Symbol Finder", etc. to make sure that the conversion process is successful.

DLL to Lib is very useful and also easy to use for all users who need to convert dynamic libraries to static ones.

Here are some key features of "DLL to Lib":

￭ Convert DLL file into its equivalent static library. In the conversion process, a programming interface identical to the export functions in the DLL is introduced for developers. And the necessary symbol tables, string tables and reference tables are also reconstructed from the DLL to make a valid and portable static library. ￭ Support to convert all 32-bit DLLs developed by different tools, including Component Object Model(COM) based DLLs. ￭ Integrate "Import Library Reference Information Generator" to process the references to standard libraries. ￭ Integrate "Symbol Finder" for you to find the detail information about a special symbol or a class of symbols. ￭ Support to convert DLLs that use compiler and API implements of TLS. ￭ Perform cross check between the DLL's import lib and the generated static lib so to eliminate the potential inconsistency. ￭ Check the COMDAT symbols in the import libs when generating the static lib. ￭ Support to load and save the conversion settings as a project file. ￭ Support command line parameters.
