A library for analyzing executables

Question

There are tools like Dependency Walker, dumpbin, ildasm for looking into DLLs/EXE files on Windows. I would like to analyze DLLs from code, especially dependencies both managed and unmanaged. Are there any (.NET) libraries out there for analyzing with similar functionality?

I want to use this to verify that we am deploying the right DLLs in setup program my company are creating. We have more than 200 DLLs.

You can use the Cecil library to analyze managed executables. And you can use Gendarme that uses Cecil if you want a rule engine to check your application.
