DLL - Dynamic Link Library DLL refers to a type of file that is stored either locally or remotely and is a collection of commands and/or data which can be shared by different programs on the same platform. Typical DLL files contain commands and/or data that are common to a certain task, for instance Windows has many DLL files built-in which other programs access and utilise. A common example of this is spool32.dll which is used for printing control within Windows 95/98 by other applications. The one time you may become aware of DLL files is when your computer crashes and you are presented with a message such as an "invalid page fault". DLL files can be updated and most of the time a problem can be solved by updating the DLL file in question. Typically, a DLL provides one or more particular functions and a program accesses the functions by creating either a static or dynamic link to the DLL. A static link remains constant during program execution while a dynamic link is created by the program as needed. DLL's ,can also contain just data. DLL files usually end with the extension .dll,.exe., drv, or .fon. A DLL can be used by several applications at the same time, an example would be Windows Operating System and used for any windows applications. Other DLLs are written for a particular application and are loaded with the application.
