I tried using a server that gives me a DLL which I can use to make a game server code(in a dll project), upload it and let them host the game for me, but here's my problem: I used an extra dll reference (in addition to their dll reference) when I made the game server code and when I tried to upload it, it said that I can only use their dll. So my question is, how can I hide the extra reference I used?

EDIT: I'll try to merge it or something. If it doesn't work that's it. Question closed. Thanks!

  • If you *hide* it,(if you could) it won't be loaded, which probably makes your code useless. – rene Jul 03 '16 at 20:14

    The closest thing I can think of is http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8077570/how-to-merge-multiple-assemblies-into-one. But whether it is what you need is difficult to say. – Eugene Podskal Jul 03 '16 at 20:15
  • So there isn't a way to 'hide' it and still use it? I just need to bypass their check. EDIT: Eugene Podskal: That might work. I'll try it in a second. – DarkDragon4900 Jul 03 '16 at 20:15

    No, you might try the ILMerge route provided by @EugenePodskal but it is extremely fragile and won't support everything, which you only find out at runtime. – rene Jul 03 '16 at 20:17
  • is their dll is written in .net then download something like JetBrains .net Peek and try to de-compile it and see what their Edit function is doing – MethodMan Jul 03 '16 at 20:19
  • @MethodMan It gets checked on the website. – DarkDragon4900 Jul 03 '16 at 20:21

If their service requires you to only use their DLL. Then they are serious when they say only use their DLL. They probably did this to avoid complications in some form or another. The only thing I could think of is combining the DLL's together with mkbundle.

mkbundle -o Name.dll targetOne.dll targetTwo.dll

This will create static copies of the DLL's inside of the Name.dll. However im sure they would have a system to check for this.
