I have tried: Project Properties > Application > Icon and Manifest
and browsing to my .ico
file. The icon appears on the right of the box once its loaded but when I build my library the icon is still just the default one.
So is it possible to embed an icon in my library and use it for the dll file itself?
Thanks
Open the icon library file (ICL format) or the Zip archive (. zip) that you want to compile into a DLL. click the "Library|Compile Library to a DLL file (32-bit)" menu command. Enter the filename for the output DLL file and press OK.
In Windows 10, you can access this window through Settings > Personalization > Themes > Desktop Icon Settings. In Windows 8 and 10, it's Control Panel > Personalize > Change Desktop Icons. Use the checkboxes in the “Desktop icons” section to select which icons you want on your desktop.
You can't, as windows doesn't look for icons in dlls. That's just done for exes.
