/NOASSEMBLY (Create a MSIL Module)

/NOASSEMBLY

Remarks

The /NOASSEMBLY option tells the linker to create an image for the current output file without a .NET Framework assembly. An MSIL output file without an assembly manifest is called a module.

By default, an assembly is created. You can also use the /LN (Create MSIL Module) compiler option to create a module.

Other linker options that affect assembly generation are:

• /ASSEMBLYDEBUG

• /ASSEMBLYLINKRESOURCE

• /ASSEMBLYMODULE

• /ASSEMBLYRESOURCE

• /DELAYSIGN

• /KEYFILE

• /KEYCONTAINER

2. Click the Linker folder.

3. Click the Advanced property page.
