Any way to convert class library function into exe?

Question

Is there any way to change my class library program into an .exe or a click once-application? It is Currently a dll.

I am able to create a click once app but it is not working after installation.

Answer 1

In the properties of the project -> application tag, change the Output type to console Application. Anyway, you need to create a static Main() method as a starting point.

    static void Main(string[] args)     {     } 

Answer 2

You can change the output type of your project in it's settings, then add a main entrypoint, as others have mentioned (Note, you want "Windows application", not "Console Application" here):

If you can't change the source for some reason, you can create a new very simple application (an .exe), and call public methods in your .dll from it:

namespace YourNamespace {     internal class YourApp     {         private static void Main(string[] args)         {             // Call your function here.          }     } } 

To do this, you just need to include a reference to the existing .dll into this new application.
