Viewing available message strings (from mc.exe) in a 3rd party DLL
Is there a way to view all the messages (ie messages created for FormatMessage by the mc.exe message compiler) available within a DLL? It appears they are added开发者_Python百科 as a single resource as type 11. Unfortunately that resource is binary.
I use Resource Hacker for all things resource-related. These messages show up as a "Message Table" resource that contains all the human-readable strings and their IDs.
You can use FindResource
or FindResourceEx
to enum all resources in the DLL. Then you can use MESSAGE_RESOURCE_ENTRY
, MESSAGE_RESOURCE_DATA
and MESSAGE_RESOURCE_BLOCK
to decode the data. See for example http://www.codeproject.com/KB/system/msgdump.aspx for details or serch for other examples searching for the API functions and the sutructures.
