- Field Detail
  - IMAGE_FILE_RELOCS_STRIPPED
```
static final short IMAGE_FILE_RELOCS_STRIPPED
```
    Image only, Windows CE, Windows NT and above. Indicates that the file does not contain base relocations and must therefore be loaded at its preferred base address. If the base address is not available, the loader reports an error. Operating systems running on top of MS-DOS (Win32s) are generally not able to use the preferred base address and so cannot run these images. However, beginning with version 4.0, Windows will use an application's preferred base address. The default behavior of the linker is to strip base relocations from EXEs.

  - IMAGE_FILE_EXECUTABLE_IMAGE
```
static final short IMAGE_FILE_EXECUTABLE_IMAGE
```
    Image only. Indicates that the image file is valid and can be run. If this flag is not set, it generally indicates a linker error.

```
static final short IMAGE_FILE_AGGRESSIVE_WS_TRIM
```

    Constant Field Values
  - IMAGE_FILE_32BIT_MACHINE
```
static final short IMAGE_FILE_32BIT_MACHINE

    Constant Field Values
  - IMAGE_FILE_DLL
```
static final short IMAGE_FILE_DLL
```
    The image file is a dynamic-link library (DLL). Such files are considered executable files for almost all purposes, although they cannot be directly run.
