 Sample: Creating Resource-Only DLLs

Summary:

The RESDLL sample shows how to create a resource-only
dynamic link library (DLL). In short, this is accomplished
by creating and resource-compiling a resource (.RC) file,
and then linking the compiled .RES file with the appropriate
libraries to create the DLL. Note that no DLL entry point is
required; hence, the "-entry: " switch can also be removed
from the link line.

The MAIN.EXE program tests THE_DLL.DLL by loading it and
referencing the DLL's icon, cursor, and bitmap. The icon and
cursor are used by the registered window class, and the
bitmap is used in painting the client area.
