There are a lot of posts on here about this, I'm using this code from another SO post and placing a delegate assignation in my Main() method. None of the other posts have directly answered my question.
I've got my third party assembly embedded as a resource but when I fire up the app:
- I'm getting a TypeInitializationException with an inner of FileNotFoundException. It's trying to find the assembly on the file system and failing.
- it's never getting to the Main method, where the event handler for AssemblyResolve is assigned
I have two assembly refs that are embedded in my Resources.resx, one is a third party tool (command line parser) and the other is a Library file where the meat of the application resides.
Maybe this isn't possible with a console app? Seems unlikely but I don't see a way around it.
Re: ILMerge etc: I'd like to get this done entirely in code without involving any tools. Reason: I don't want to have source code in the repository that requires other team members to install a tool that they probably don't have already. If that's not possible then ILMerge looks like the next best option.
Consider using ILMerge to merge the assemlies into one rather than embedding as a resource. This is download site for ILMerge.
You would merge your third party assemblies into your console app.
You could also look at application virtualization tools like XenoCode. They can package multiple assemblies (including the .net framework itself) into a stand alone executable.
If it is mixed mode assembly, it has to reside on the disk. Some limitation or something.
