How to use Dotfuscator with VSTO?

Question

Right now, I use Dotfuscator in my all c# programs,but ,if I use it in VSTO, when I try to deploy in target computer, VSTO always prompt me: "File has a different computed hash than specified in manifest"

My question is, How to use Dotfuscator with VSTO in right way?

Answer 1

You will need to perform the obfuscation right after the assemblies are compiled/built - this will ensure that the new obfuscated assemblies are used to compute hashes/manifests etc.

Not sure if Dotfuscator supports this, but Crypto Obfuscator does - Crypto Obfuscator has a wizard which you run on your VS project and then obfuscation will be automatically performed everytime, and immediately after, your project is built.
