Hello,
I would like to retrieve the list of interfaces contained in an EXE or
DLL file and some informations about them such as CLSID and inheritance.
Do you know how is it possible ?

Thank you.

Simply import the dll in the typelibrary editor.

Sorry I wasn't clear enough. I would like to retrieve it from my program, so I
need a delphi code  for that...

Thaddy de Koning a crit :

A typelibrary is a custom resource, so you can use Tresourcestream to extract it.
Problem is, you have to decompile it, to know what it means.
The proof that it can be done is Delphi's own Typelibrary editor:It's written in
Delphi.

Start with the function LoadTypeLib or LoadTypeLibEx.

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/sdkdoc/automat/chap9_6tmb.htm for more
information.

In my case, this function isn't of any use, as my ActiveX Library has no
type library, just COM objects that don't implement the IDispatch interface,
just the IUnknown interface. In this case, the DLL only contains a type
library with the CLSID of the type library itself, without information about
the contained objects.

Please let me know what information you store in the DLL (if you have used a
type library).

Benoit -

The July edition of EXE magazine has a two-page article (by me) on how to
interrogate type libraries using Delphi. Visit www.exe.co.uk and look in
the 'Codebin' area.  There should be a very recent demo file.
