How to create a dll/exe on the fly in C#?

Question

I know I can spawn new process using compiled exe file.

Suppose I have a class with a method in my app which I want to be run in the separate process.

Can I compile this method into separate assembly in run-time and spawn process running this newly created file?

Answer 1

Sure... look at CSharpCodeProvider that can read and compile code to eg an .exe file

Answer 2

Why not just run in its own App Domain. Gives process like separation.
