What is the difference between Windows DLLs and Mac code resources?

I have heard that DLLs may allow access to global variables (or
Fortran common blocks), while Mac code resources do not, and that
Mac code resources have size limitations. 

Is there any DLL implementation or emulation available for the Mac?

Thanks for any help,
