DLL Helper

[Yashied]

LAST VERSION - 1.0

28-May-12

This small utility designed for viewing the exported DLL functions and is written specifically for AutoIt community. Nothing excess, just the tools you need. Especially useful are Drag-and-Drop and support for command line that allows you to add DLL Helper in the Windows Explorer context menu. To do this, you can use the following .reg file.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\dllfile\shell\View]
@="View exported function"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\dllfile\shell\View\command]

@=""C:\Program Files\DLLHelper\DLLHelper.exe" "%1""

Also worth noting is fairly fast enumeration of exported DLL functions and the ability to export the function list into a text or HTML document.

As usualy, I will be glad to any feedback and suggestions.

 

Major program features

• Support for both x86 and x64 DLL files.
• Fast enumeration of exported DLL functions.
• Support for command line (use the full path in the first parameter).
• Support Drag-and-Drop.
• Web search for functions with the ability to add user-defined services (up to 10, via registry).
• Ability to view the undecorated names of DLL function.
• Ability to specify a filter to display the functions of interest.
• Sort the function list by any column.
• Copying any data (by column) from the list to the clipboard.
• Export list of function to the .txt or .html file.
• List of recently opened files (up to 10).
• Simple and intuitive interface.

Great tool, I remember, trancexx made something similar in her ResHacker Project, didn't she? Anyhow, superb tool. Five stars from me as well.

Not working on Win7 x64 running AutoIt v3.3.8.1 in x86 mode.

!>09:20:05 AutoIT3.exe ended.rc:-1073740940

When running your compiled exe it closes w/o any em just after selection of a DLL file.

@Who use Windows XP

I fixed a problem, please download again (1.0.0.1) in the first post. But anyway, I recommend to update dbghelp.dll in your system to version 6.1 or later because 5.1 does not support Unicode versions of some functions.

@UEZ

It seems the problem with GetOpenFileName() and GetSaveFileName() functions. Please try this version and report me. Here I used the native AutoIt functions.

@JScript

To add these Web services just import the following .reg file into registry.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareY'sDLL HelperWebServices3]
"Name"="The Code Project"
"Url"="http://www.codeproject.com/search.aspx?q=*"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareY'sDLL HelperWebServices4]
"Name"="PInvoke.net"
"Url"="http://www.pinvoke.net/search.aspx?search=*"
"Icon"=""

Moreover, you can edit the list of search engines themselves via registry in the following hive.

HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareY'sDLL HelperWebServices

The maximum number of services up to 10.

@Win7 x64: same problem

@Win8 x64 in vm: working

@Vista x64 in vm: working

I will reboot my Win7 x64 machine and test again. If it is working I will respond again.

Very nice app Yashied. Thanks for sharing!!

[ProgAndy]

It looks really good.

If there are so many problems with dbghelp, why haven't you used _ProcessGetWinPEExports by Ascend4nt?

[Yashied]

The problem was only with the version of dbghelp.dll because I did not have Windows XP, but it solved.

[AlmarM]

Nice.

I find this very useful, thanks.

[Andreik]

Now functions are enumerated but if I try to search for a function on google or MSDN the program crash or exit.

@Yashied

Updates corrected issue, I also had to update the dbghelp.dll all is now good. Thank you
