C#'s equivalent of jar files?

Java provides the jar file so that all the class files and jar files are merged into one file. Does C# provide equivalent/similar functionality?

c# java deployment jar

Not really, C# works with .dll and .lib. If you don't put everything in the same project (all source code), you won't be able to achieve what you probably want to do.

But with ILMerge, you can combine everything into 1 executable for easier distribution if you don't want to have a setup or a compressed file containing all the files needed..

No, an assembly AFAIK can not include referenced assemblies.
