Hallo,
I have a question concerning creation of strong-name .NET assemblies. According to ftn95 help, first a MDL-file should be created and then recompiled to a .NET DLL using Microsoft .NET assembly linker (al.exe). This works fine, however, the created DLL doesn't work unless the MDL-file is supplied as well, although according to ftn95 help the MDL should be included in the DLL. I've tried different configurations when using al.exe, such as to embed or link the MDL-file. This creates significantly larger DLL, however, the result is always the same - it works only if the MDL-file is present as well.
Is there any way to avoid this file-dependency, i.e. to be able to use (release) only the .NET DLL-file?
Thanks in advance. |
