When you execute a program, it might call others modules (dll, drv etc). How can you find which modules are currently linked to your program.


How can we find the version of a dll.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Use the "Depends" tool that comes with Visual Studio. Its
also called the Dependency Walker. Open your executable file
in it to see the dependencies.

U can use toolhelp api for Win 9x and PSAPI for Win NT-based (NT/2000/XP).

Do you want to get these information from outside the process or from inside it? For the former one....

For an overview of the dependicies of your application you have two possibilities:

1. Use the 'Dependency Walker' (depends.exe)

2. Use 'Dumpbin' (dumpbin.exe) with the parameter /DEPENDENTS

Both methods will show you a list of dll's that are linked to your application - either statically or dynamically. To find out which dll's are dynamically loaded you need to use the profiling feature of the 'Dependeny Walker'.

Other method is to use a install program such Instalshield. They will search for the program dependencies.

Thank you guys.
Depend.exe has given me good insight.
Thanks again

You can use a variety of tools to do this, such as tlist.exe which is provided by mickeysoft in the debugging support tools, you can also find support tools at www.sysinternals.com
