How to merge your dotnet assemblies

For deployment purpose, you may want to merge your dotnet assemblies.

Microsoft provides ILMerge to do such thing !

Although this tool is very usefull, it's also pretty raw, so you may use a GUI wrapper such as ILMergeGui.

To finish this article, and because a good developper is a lazy developper, I warmly recommand to use NAnt in post-build generation event to automate the merge.

Happy merging !
