how to build asp.net mvc application with single assembly dll

Question

A.O.A I have a web application in Asp.net MVC which has 2 my own created Assemblies and 2 other classes. The problem is that I want to create just 2 dlls each for my assembly but it creates for my project and other 2.

When I publish it, it creates EduSoft.Data.dll EduSoft.Helpers.dll MvcUi.dll NPoco.dll Newtonsoft.Json.dll

and I want all this in two only EduSoft.Data.dll EduSoft.Helpers.dll

I had done the same but getting the following error:Compiler Error Message: CS0234: The type or namespace name 'Helpers' does not exist in the namespace 'System.Web' (are you missing an assembly reference?) How did you not get that error? – Kbdavis07 Aug 10 '14 at 00:35

This is what .net framework is all about!!

3rd party DLLS/Projects are treated as different from current project, and this is absolutely perfect. Please don't try to think out of box in this case.

If you want single DLL, decompile all code from 3rd party tool, put it in your project (it's a security breach though)
