Parsing plain Win32 PE File (Exe/DLL) in C#.NET

Hello,

I need to parse plain Win32 DLL/Exe and need to get all imports and exports from it and to show it on console or GUI(say Win Forms). Is it possible to parse Win32 DLL/Exe in C#.NET, read its export table,import table and get managed types from it. As its unmanaged PE(.NET doesn't allows you to convert unmanaged PE files to managed .NET assemblies, only it generates COM managed assemblies).

So how to parse export and import tables of PE files and take all methods(signatures from it) in managed form.(e.g if char* as argument, it should display as IntPtr)

Regards Usman

I'd start by searching google for "pe file format specification".

Once you understand the PE format, then it would be a simple matter to parse the file.
