Is there some equivalent of GNU Binary File Descriptor (BFD) for Windows .lib files?

I have a .lib file that was compiled from C++ and would like to be able to do some of the same things you can do with .so files using BFD in Linux. Are there any alternatives or ways to get BFD to work with .lib files? Thanks!

Windows is not really a fully open source project but you could definitely try to write a parser yourself for the .lib, .exe, and .dll files. There is plenty of information on these file formats and definitely enough to parse them accurately. I really couldn’t find a library that would parse Window’s binaries but hey maybe I just can’t google well.
