If you want to do it manually, then you would need to walk the DLL's PE
(Portable Executable) header itself.  The PE header is a series of
structures at the very beginning of the file which point out where the
various sections of the DLL are located within the file, such as the
exported functions list, the resources list, the code segments, etc.  Have a
look at the following article for more information:

    An In-Depth Look into the Win32 Portable Executable File Format

No.
