OleWoo - Yet another TLB viewer.

Oleview's a very handy tool, but it's got some really annoying niggles (only 1 typelibrary open at once, no search, slow on large TLBs, yadda yadda) - OleWoo is my attempt at building something which drags oleview kicking and screaming into at least the late 1990s!

Olewoo screen

This might look familiar... (now hyperlinks take you to interface/type definitions...)

Olewoo screen

Using the 'find symbol' search box opens a list on the right, with all matching nodes of the TypeLibrary tree - click on one to navigate to it, and view the relevant IDL. Click on the [>>>] to dismiss the list.

Of course, you can CTRL+F on the IDL viewer to search (It's infuriating that that's missing from OLEVIEW!)

Olewoo screen

Click 'Add new Tab' to open up another view on the typelibrary - useful when you need to flick back and forth between interfaces.

And, of course, you can open as many typelibraries as you want!

Olewoo screen

OleDump allows you to dump the IDL for a TLB directly from the command line - this is something I've occasionally wished for from OleView!

  • I consider this pretty much stable (and have moved on to other pet projects), which probably means it's got a tonne of annoying features. ;), but feel free to drop me a note (or a pull request!) if you've got a tlb that it doesn't play well with.
