[TUT] Create a DLL and Use It In Your Application [VB.NET] - Ĥ4Ж0Ŕ - Aug 18, 2010
Hi Guys
Today I'll show you how to create a DLL and use it in your application instead of writing the full code in your project.
Step 1:
Create a New Class Library as Shown below

Step 2:
Name the class as you want then add your code as shown below

As you can see, my code is a simple Math operations and you can add your own code. So let's build it and close VS.
You'll find your dll in the release folder
Step 3:
Now our Dll is ready to use so let's make an application which will use the Dll.

Step 4:
Now we have to add a reference to our Dll
GoTo Project -> Add Reference, and browse to where your Dll is located.

Step 5:
Ok, Now let's write our application and don't forget to import the Dll

Now we're done. so let's compile the project and test it.
Result:

Ok, that's it. Now I need your feedback

You don't even need to have Class1.vb or whatever it is that is created when you make the project. You can trash that and add a UserControl if you don't want to program. It will still compile as a DLL and works just fine.

I believe you can bro!
This just an example where I'm using functions and you can put whatever you want and if you're familiar with GDI you can create some cool controls such as themes, buttons....etc and compile it as a dll 😉

I'm not sure on what dll you're talking about but if you're talking about that one which is located the debug or release folder then you're totally wrong😠. it's not even a dll.

If you create a Class Library and not a Windows Form App, when you compile, it should create a DLL and not an EXE. What I meant by "Class1.vb" was the default file that is created when you make a new Class Library. You don't have to manually code everything. For people who don't feel confident in doing that, they can delete the default file and add a New UserControl and create their control on there. When they compile it, it should compile as a DLL.
