===================================
File: README.TXT


============
Introduction
============
Welcome to DLL to Lib. DLL to Lib is a magical tool which can convert a DLL file into its 
equivalent static library file so that you can distribute your applications without the DLLs.

=============
Main Features
=============
- Convert DLL file to its equivalent static library. In the conversion process, a programming
  interface identical to the export functions in the DLL is introduced for developers. And the
  necessary symbol tables, string tables and reference tables are also recontructed from the 
  DLL to make a valid and portable static library. 
 
- Can convert all 32-bit DLLs developed by different tools.

- Integrate "Import Library Reference Information Generator" to process the reference to 
  standard libraries.

- Integrate "Symbol Finder" for you to find the detail information about a special symbol or a
  class of symbols.
