LibPE (LibPE v1.2.3) View Source

Implementation of the Windows PE executable format for reading and writing PE binaries.

Most struct member names are taken directly from the windows documentation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/debug/pe-format

This library has been created specifically to archieve the following:

Update the PE checksum in erl.exe after making changes
Insert a Microsoft manifest file after compilation: https://docs.microsoft.com/de-de/windows/win32/sbscs/application-manifests
Insert an Executable Icon after compilation
