Is it possible to statically pass code between projects in C #?

Is it possible in C # to share code between Visual Studio projects without having to distribute the DLL?

I support some software consisting of several Visual Studio C # projects, each building for a simple console executable. There is a lot of common code between the projects that I would like to check out. I believe that I can put code in a class library project, but I would prefer to avoid DLL references for distribution with each of the executable files.

Is there any way around this? I'm new to C #, so maybe I think about it anyway - are there any alternative suggestions?

You can use ILMerge to combine the class library with exe.

Well, my personal preference would be to bite a bullet and distribute the DLL. This is the cleanest and most idiomatic option.

Other parameters:

  • You can add a link to an existing source file outside the project directory, if I remember correctly, but it will be somewhat strange.
  • You can use ilmerge to combine the class library into an executable as a step after assembly.
