// This executable takes a Windows DLL and uses it to generate
// a module-definition file [1] which forwards all the exported
// symbols from the DLL and redirects them back to the DLL.
// This allows node.exe to export the same symbols as libnode.dll
// when building Node.js as a shared library. This is conceptually
// similar to the create_expfile.sh script used on AIX.
//
// Generating this .def file requires parsing data out of the
// PE32/PE32+ file format. Helper structs are defined in <Windows.h>
// hence why this is an executable and not a script. See [2] for
// details on the PE format.
