To reinject DLLs automatically

Hot Reload DLL

A utility to automatically reinject custom DLLs into processes.

Usage

Uses the RELOAD environment variable to store the target DLL path.

Use the following powershell snippet or create an environment variable called RELOAD user variable.

$env:RELOAD = 'C:\Path\to\DLL'  # powershell
# start the application

Each time the DLL at $RELOAD is changed, it gets loaded automatically using LoadLibraryW.

Building from source

You need meson and ninja. Get it from pip using:

pip install meson ninja

Clone the repo using:

git clone https://www.github.com/spider2048/HotReload --depth 1
cd HotReload

Next, use meson:

meson setup build --buildtype release # or debug
ninja -C build # to start building it

The resulting DLL can be found at ./build/HotReload.dll.

Use Injector to inject the DLL into the target process.
