I have my own encryption library. I'm programming it so that it is in it's own class library. I also have a test project that is an encryption manager. It's how I test the encryptions to make sure they work, how secure they are, etc. Well I don't want the library DLL to be a seperate file, is there a way that when I build the encryption manager that the encryption library is included IN the exe? Or is there some sort of program I can use to combine them? Maybe a section of preprocessor code?
PS, I don't want to manually copy the encryption classes into the encryption manager project, then if I upgrade an encryption, I have to upgrade it in the manager as well. If you've programmed for more then 3 days, then you know that keeping track of 2 things like that can be a problem!

If you don't want a separate DLL, but you don't want them embedded in the manager (exe) when where exactly do you expect them to be put?
In short the answer is no.

Instead of dynamically linking your libraries, you should STATITACLLY link them, I don't know how, but you should find easilly tutorials about it, but statically links embed the dll into the EXE, which is what you need.
