Hi,
According to this topic I'd like to ask whether it is a good or bad choice
if I use an embedded DLL (<Binary>) implenting the functionality to tackle
with the running executable issue. It becomes interesting when it comes to
deploying the application to 64 bit platforms. I mean in this case, would it
be a must to provide a 64 bit version of the DLL, too?
