C# DLL in non dot net environment

[Dave52]

Is it possible to use a c# dll in an environment where the dot net framework has not been installed ?

For example will a C++ wrapper do the job?

Thanks.

No. Code compiled for the .Net Framework needs the CLR to run.

It's possible if you use our linker tool:

http://www.remotesoft.com/linker/

It will include a subset of the framework along with your C# dll and a
native stub for that dll.

For instance, you could use the tool to write an Office .NET addin, and a
..NET windows forms user control for IE, and deploy them w/o the full .NET
framework.
