Build a Portable Visual Studio 2010 Application

How do you compile and export a finished C# program in Visual Studio in a single executabl开发者_运维知识库e?

As soon as you press the compile button an executable file is created inside the bin/debug-folder of where you save your project. Unless you've created a class-library the program is just that one .exe file. For every class-library you create there will be a .dll file so as long as you don't use class-libraries you'll be fine.

You can merge libraries into your exe using a variety of tools.

See Merging dlls into a single .exe with wpf for an example.
