How about a resource dll.
Heres an example from the delphi3000.com site
Create and build an empty DLL project, that contains a resource
link reference to the .res file that contains your resources.
library ResTest;
uses
SysUtils;
{$R MYRES.RES}
begin
end.
To use you resource only DLL, simply load the dll and the
resources
you wish to use:
Example:
{$IFDEF WIN32}
const BadDllLoad = 0;
{$ELSE}
const BadDllLoad = 32;
{$ENDIF}
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
h : THandle;
Icon : THandle;
begin
h := LoadLibrary('RESTEST.DLL');
if h <= BadDllLoad then
ShowMessage('Bad Dll Load')
else begin
Icon := LoadIcon(h, 'ICON_1');
DrawIcon(Form1.Canvas.Handle, 10, 10, Icon);
FreeLibrary(h);
end;
end;

Subject: [DUG]: Sharing a bitmap between processes
And for something completely different...
I want one process to be able to share a bitmap with another process. Since
you
cant share win handles, then somehow need to get bitmap into shared memory.
Writetomemorystream perhaps? There isnt by any chance some arcane windows
lore on sharing such an object?
