    How to override / create custom xcdsfx32.bin module

    I have Xceed ZIP for .NET 3.7 blueprint edition. Is it possible to create a custom xcdsfx32.bin file that I can use with XceedSfxPrefix?

    My goal is to create a self-extracting archive that prompts the user for a serial number prior to extraction. I need to use custom code to validate the serial number before extracting. It looks like the only way to accomplish this is by modifying the SFX module (.bin file) that gets embedded in the destination EXE file. 

    Is this possible?

    You can use your own binary, but you would need to re-write it from scratch, or use an SFX from another vendor (e.g. WinZip).

    Is the source code for xcdsfx32.bin included in the Blueprint edition?

    No, this is not something we sell, unfortunately.
