LoadLibrary from resource?

Subject:LoadLibrary from resource?

We have some 3rd-party security code that has been provided to us as a DLL.
Rather than shipping a separate DLL with our app, we would like to link the
DLL into our application (D7). At the moment we are considering including
the DLL as a resource, then writing it out as a file at runtime, and loading
it.

Does anybody know of any way to do this *without* writing it out as a file,
ie, LoadLibrary (or equivalent) either directly from the resource, or from a
Stream?

Thanks,
Alistair.
