I've been trying to use ILMerge to merge assemblies in VS2010 and the resulting primary assembly ends up being unusable. This only seems to occur when the assemblies being merged contain methods with Lambda expressions. Also, it seems to work fine in VS2008. I've outlined my investigation in more detail at http://tinyurl.com/38mz4ef ...

Further I would like to be able to debug into the resultant assembly. Preparation - A simple example New Solution - ClassLibrary1 Create a static function 'GetMessage' in Class1 whic...

Does anyone know why the Castle.Core assembly has to be excluded from the IlMerge process? I've seen a lot of open source projects with IlMerge.exclude files that lists the following files to be excluded from the merge. Castle.Core.Interceptor.IInvocation Castle.Core.Interceptor.IInterceptor Castle.Core.Interceptor.IProxyTargetAccessor...
Currently I know of two methods of embedding assemblies into one application file: ILMerge and using the ResolveAssembly event. I would like to know if anyone have had more success with one over the other. Is there any drawbacks from using either one of those (performance, security, ...)? From my point of view, it looks like we should...

I'm developing in Windows 7 64-bit with Visual Studio 2008. I have a collection of class libraries that I merge into a single DLL using ILMerge.

For the life of me, I can't seem to get my .NET 4 application merging properly with ILMerge. Even after setting /targetplatform, /lib, /ndebug and adding a custom ILMerge.exe.config file the output file doesn't work properly (it doesn't seem to be able to "find" the merged libraries). I've tried this and this to no avail. I can't even g...

ILMerge usually merges my assemblies fine when building a Release, but when Publishing for ClickOnce the resulting EXE doesn't contain the DLLs that were supposed to be merged. I think ILMerge is working, but Publish is overwriting the new merged assembly with the old original one. I made a Post-Build event that stopped the build right ...
I tried to use ILMerge on my WPF-based project (VS2010, Net4.0) but I couldn't make the merged executable to run. So I created two very simply projects just a console application which prints out hello world wpf application which shows window with hello world label After compiling each project I get single executable file (so merging...
My case: I have an app.exe and several dlls for it -- a.dll, b.dll, c.dll, etc (they come from single VS solution which consists of many projects). I would like to merge (ilmerge) all dlls into one so I would have: app.exe + x.dll. Now, there is a problem -- the application expects to have all dlls so when I put just single file x.dll i...
