If I have a mehtod that returns an important security call that tells me whether I am entitled to launch the application or not. It is a security hole to access this through a DLL rather than by statically linking to the library?

In what way might this compromise security?

Cheers,
David

erm DLLs are compiled, so there is a similar amount of security to statically compiled code. If you need it to actually be secure from ppl who might break out a hex editor or decompiler, you'd want to encrypt the data...
