I have created a C++ CLI wrapper for native C++ code, which in turn I reference in my C# application. Is it possible to somehow protect this assembly so that it may only be used in my application without the possibility of someone else using it?
I’m a Microsoft technology developer, I’m all about selfishness 🙂
I have used this technique with success.
Basically, it’s about protecting your assembly from being loaded by placing a link-time security demand and using the assembly strong name’s public key as evidence. Only assemblies signed with your private key will be able to load it.
