What is a DLL?
A dynamic-link library (DLL) file is an executable file that allows programs to share code and other resources necessary to perform particular tasks.

A DLL provides one or more particular functions. Programs accesses these 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.

A DLL can be used by several applications at the same time. Some DLLs are provided with the Windows operating system and available for any Windows application. Other DLLs are written for a particular application and are loaded with the application.

DLL files usually end with the extension .dll,.exe., drv, or .fon.

Kernel.exe, User.exe and Gdi.exe are examples of DLLs with .EXE extensions. They provide code, data or routines to programs running in the Windows operating system.

DLLs may be found in the Windows directory, Windows\System directory or in an program's directory.


Static and Dynamic Linking
Usually, programmers use static linking when using functions in a DLL. This is the most easiest way to use a DLL. However, if a DLL is missing, application cannot be started. This is not a big problem: missing DLL means that something is wrong with application installation and the application should not be started anyway.

If an application is designed in such a way as to offer some optional features with the help of one or more DLLs, missing DLL should not prevent the application to run normally (but without optional features). In this case, DLL must be loaded dynamically.


Axapta DLLs
In the Bin directory of the Client and Server we can find several DLL-files. These DLL-files are either created by Microsoft or by third parties.
