list DLL functions

[Sheikko]

Hi,
I want to list the functions contained in a DLL in c# , is there a code
for doing this?
thank you very much

You could see them in the class view inside Visual Studio. However I
recommend you to intall the lutz roeder reflector tool
http://www.aisto.com/roeder/dotnet/Download.aspx?File=Reflector

Once installed open the dll with it, navigate to the desired class and
press space to decompile it.

Hope it helps,
Tony Santolaria

Thank you.
I have tried it, but He told me that the "dll does not contain a CLI
Header"

Use the tools tools like dumpbin.exe and depends.exe , they are specially designed for that.
If you want to do it from C# you will need a good grasp of the PE library structure so you
can read it's export table using .NET's FileIO classes.

Sorry Sheikko I misunderstood you, I though you were decompiling a c#
dll, reflector only works for managed code.
Depends.exe will work but I can't tell you how to format it out in C#,
anyway here is a download link in case you need it:

thank you. it work. It list me the functions and this is very good. But
I want also if possible if there is a way to list how many arguments
the function requires and their type.

As I told you in another posting of yours, you can't get at the exact arguments or the
return values of a DLL's exported functions. You need to consult the documentation of the
DLL's exports, if these aren't documented you should try to get the header file(s) used to
build the DLL, if you can't get either of them - DON'T CALL the exported functions, they
were not designed to be called from arbitrary code.
