Dimitri,

AFAIK, This is not possible in C#. But, if this is a .NET application, you
may want to look into self-updating applications.

| Hi All,
|
| I have a question. I need to load some EXE file into memory and then find 
a
| way how to run it from the memory without saving to disk. I know that it 
was
| possible in C++ to execute any code already loaded into memory. What about
| C#? Does anybody know how to do that?
|
| The main purpose - to download a small installer from my www and then 
using
| this installer to download some big installer (like SETUP.EXE) and run it
| without saving to a client disk. That's a requirement, the purpose is to
| keep the client always up-to-date and don't allow him to keep old 
installer
| files on the remote machine. The small installer should test the remote
| application version and understand what version is running to stop it and
| update if it's needed.
|
| Thanks,
| Dmitri.
