Multifile Assembly Help

[BuddyWork]

Hello,

I want to build the following code into one multifile
assembly.

MyApp.exe
MyAppDll1.dll
MyAppDl12.dll

I want to create a new MyApp2.exe which has MyAppDll1.dll
and MyAppDll2.dll and MyApp.exe within it.

How do I do this with multifile assembly?

That's not how multifile assemblies work. It sounds like you want a
merge tool such as

Thanks for the reply Mattias,

The reason I'm looking at Multifile assembly is so I can
speed up the application load/running time, when running
from a network drive. My understanding is that, by using
multifile assembly, the CLR will only download the
manifest and then load the assembly when required (I don't
know if the assembly will be downloaded from a network
drive to the local cache, if it does do this then I'm not
benifiting of using multifile assembly because most of the
start/running time is spent on copying the assembly to the
local cache).

Thanks,

Well the runtime will only download and load assemblies when needed
too, so you may as well keep using separate assemblies in this case.
