How would you do this?

I would like my application to check an outside file (dll) to see that it
has not been modified or tampered with.

Is it possible to somehow generate a unique hashcode from the file itself
and check that? If so, what method would you use?

Or is there other (better) solutions?

Cheers,
Johnny J.

Did you compile the DLL yourself? If you did, you could sign the DLL which
will give you a signature. Then using reflection you can check the
signatures:

Depending on what you're doing, I think this check can be done
declaratively in the .config file.
