New DLL Information site for Windows 7

I created a new Web site containing information about every DLL in the system32 directory of Windows 7 Release Candidate.

Each DLL page contains the following information:

  • Version information – product name, company, file desctiption, and so on.
  • DLL popularity – Shows you how many DLLs are statically linked to this file.
  • List of files that are statically linked to the specified file. Displayed only when the number of files in the list is 10 or less.
  • Sections information – Shows you the code and data sections in the DLL.
  • Resources information – Displays a summary of resources stored in the DLL (icons, bitmaps, cursors, dialog-boxes, and so on)
  • Icons Thumbnail – A Thumbnail with all icons stored in the DLL.
  • Cursors Thumbnail – A Thumbnail with all cursors stored in the DLL.
  • Strings information – Displays a list of strings stored in this DLL (Currently the list is limited to 100 strings)
  • Diaogbox information – Displays a list of dialog-boxes captions in this DLL (Currently the list is limited to 100 dialog-boxes)
  • Static Linking – Displays the list of DLL files that are statically linked to the DLL. When a DLL is loaded the DLL in this Static Linking list are also loaded with it.
  • Exports/Imports List – A list of all imported and exported functions.

There are also some “Top DLL” statitics tables that shows the DLL files with largest number of icons, DLL files with largest number of cursors, and so on.
