How to Run exe from memory or stream ?

  You can use something like this

  Program p = new Program();

  string[] arr=p.GetType().Assembly.GetManifestResourceNames();

  foreach (string s in arr)

  {

  Stream stream=p.GetType().Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream(s);

  byte[] asm = new byte[stream.Length];

  stream.Read(asm, 0, asm.Length);

  Console.WriteLine(asm.Length);

  Assembly a=Assembly.Load(asm);

  MethodInfo mi = a.EntryPoint;

  mi.Invoke(null, null);

  Console.WriteLine(s);

  }

  Console.ReadLine();

  provided your exe is in COFF

  hi,

  i'm not sure from this but give it a try

  1) right click your project name in solution explorer and select properties

  2)select resources Tab and from the top of this page select (Add resources/existing file) select your exe / open

  3) go to solution exploere / expand resources node right click your exe and select properties , from build Action select embeded resources

  4) in solution explorer right click your project again and select Add reference, go to browse tab , select your exe again

  now you can deal with your exe as you deal with other classes , for example MyexeNameSpace.Form1 f = new MyexeNameSpace.Form1();

  f.show();

  it will run the form but the exe will not appear in the output folder

  hope this helps
