I have an App which I am developing, it uses an external SDK that has a number of DLLs which need to be referred from my application code. Because of this reason, I have to explore ways to deploy this app on a windows container in EKS, but I would like to have a better way to refer to these DLLs in some externalized way or decoupled from my linux container only, so that I do not need to create a windows container only for that purpose. I tried to go through some links as well as below to figure that out, but couldn't get a clear picture.

Docker Windows container running DLL's

Using Windows DLL from Linux

Using Precompiled .NET Assembly DLL in Mono?

Is that possible in any manner or will I have to use a windows container only just because my code refers to some DLLs while performing backend operations?

  • It depends on the type of the DLL. If they are DLLs compiled with .NET Core or .NET 5 you most likely can just use them under Linux. -> We need more details – Daniel Hilgarth Jan 19 '21 at 13:29
  • Daniel , thanks for the comment . Can you let me a easy way to find out whether a DLL is compiled with .NET core or .NET 5 ? – Saurabh Chaturvedi Jan 19 '21 at 14:29
  • You could try opening it in IL Spy. If it works, it's .NET. The exact type and version should be visible somewhere as well – Daniel Hilgarth Jan 19 '21 at 15:05
