I'm trying to make a C# dll that includes all its dependencies in itself. So that the dll, which is actaully a module for another C# program, can be only one file. So is there a way to put a dll inside a dll and then make add a reference to this dll?

  • An alternative approach is to use ILMerge. It creates one dll from a set of assemblies and can be applied to about any application without code changes. – PMF Apr 14 '14 at 06:14

Embedding as a resource and ILMerge was already mentioned in the comments. I'd like to give another alternative: ILRepack. It works like ILMerge but unlike ILMerge is still actively developed.
