I cannot imagine putting all that work into a sound effect and then leaving it visually ugly.

I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.

Probably the answer they were looking for:
An exe requires a fixed entry point, so the loader can work out where start execution. A dll lacks this entry point and therefore the loader can't work out where to start.
Other than that, I don't think there are any important differences between an exe and dll, though I could be wrong about that.
|

DLLs can have standards-specified entry points too, for example the functions used for COM registration/deregistration. But yes, they don't have a 'main method' which is directly linked to from the file header. I think if you went with that answer to such an idiotic question they'd just not get it though.

DllMain()
[edit]
Oh, and check out the /ENTRY option on the linker too.
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

Wrong forum?
I'd say that those are the operating system rules ... an exe is an executable file and a dll is a library (the clue's in the name).

It does not have a main method! - the interviewer said!

Oh, I don't read signatures as part of the post.

Yes, not having a main method is a key part of the correct answer to that.
|
|
|
|
|
You may be right, but on the other hand I can compile any code into a dll, so does a "main()" method, but still it won't execute!
|
|
|
|
|
Exactly, the correct term would be a main entry point. The main method is just a label used by compilers to indicate the main entry point of the application.
Plus, there are a few details that are different between DLLs and EXEs like the PE Header.
