Installaing assembly in GAC without strong name

Hi,

Is it possbile to install the assembly in GAC without signing it and
creating the strong name?

If i direclty register an assembly using gacutil /i <assembly>, it give
me an error saying cannot install the assembly as it is not given a
strong name. attempting to install with no strong name.

Evetually it doesn't install.

Pls let me know.

Why don't you want to give it a strong name?

Just juse sn.exe to create a strong name for the app and include the
resulting file in your AssemblyInfo file.

Hi, I have one weakly named(i.e. not strong named) assembly/xyz.dll. And other strong named assemblies/.dll. I have found that I can't use weakly named assembly with strong named assembly. How can I convert weekly named assembly to strong named assembly. Or other possible way. One more question: If I create assembly for C# with strong name. Can some one else, who is not using strong name, will be able to use it in his C#

Suppose an assembly "Main" is using class "A" from another Assembly "Dep" as follows : A a = new A(); a.MethodOne(); At what time is the call to MethodOne linked to the actual MSIL (method body) of the method? Does this occur when "Main" is build or does it happen when main is loaded and Jitted? Also is the linking achieved by the full method name( this is what is seen in the IL generated by ILDASM : e.g : call

I have compiled libraries as dlls (managed) and I have to uniquely enumerate it (kind of Guid for each one). All of them implements the same interface (see code block) and generate ID each time it called. I want to fix it into assembly (option 1) or use any internal GUID of assemble if possible (Option 2). How to implement it without changing all implementation classes (including abstracts)? Are any unique ID for compiled dll in .NET? ...

Maybe I haven't had that "a-ha" moment yet, but I think the new approach to web projects is a step in the wrong direction. My main beef is that control over the assembly generation process has been taken away from us! I also don't agree with the logic behind a web site not having a project file, but I'll save that for another thread! Here's our scenario: We have a web project that runs in a non-managed sharepoint directory. The web...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
