I create a .NET (WPF) Application, and compile it to .EXE. Then I create a second project, and add a reference to the compiled .exe, I can see all the classes and forms, and can use them for automation, etc.
I want to prevent other people from using my compiled .exe as a .dll, so I changed all my classes to 'Friend' instead of 'Public', but this doesn't work for the (wpf) forms. And every time I create a new class, I must remember to change it to 'Friend'.
So, is there a better solution for preventing your app to be used as a DLL?
UPDATE: I am aware that .NET is easily decompilable, and that the access modifiers can be modified by a determined 'cracker'. But I only want to make it a little harder, than just adding a reference.
Maybe i should have stated my question differently: How can I make all forms/classes in my project 'Friend', without specifying it for every item.
