Default Gacutil.exe for dotnet 2.0 ?

hi ,

Where can we physically see gacutil.exe for dotnet2.0 version ?

i saw in my machine and its not appearing in
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727.

Is this gacutil.exe present in some other folder for .Net 2.0 ?

thanks

In VS2005 gacutil.exe has moved here:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SDK\v2.0\bin\gacutil.exe

Senthil,

It won't be present on the client machine. Either install the assembly
using a setup project, send gacutil.exe along with your project (or
install the entire SDK), or manually add the assembly by dropping the file
in C:\Windows\Assembly


If you install the .Net 2.0 SDK or Visual Studio 2005 (which installs the
SDK as well), the file should be in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual
Studio 8\SDK\v2.0\bin\gacutil.exe unless you have installed it to a
different location.

Hi Morten ,

Thanks!!!

So the gacutil.exe must be present in the install setup program in the CD,
and when installation happens the gacutil.exe in the CD must be able to
install all the assemblies in GAC. Right ?

Also we cannot redistribite the Gacutil.exe to any client machine right ?

thanks
Senthil

No. Using a setup project, in the File System window, right click and Add
Special Folder -Global Assembly Cache Folder. Then right click this
folder and select the files you need. No need to use gacutil at all, and
in fact, using the setup project option you have the added repair
functionality.

I doubt it.
