Signing assemblies ???

[serge calderara]

Dear all,

I have different asseblies that I would like to sign in order to place them
in the GAC.
For that I first create a keypair at the same place as my solution file with :

sn -k lang.snk

Then in my assemblyInfo file I place following line:
<Assembly: AssemblyKeyFileAttribute("lang.snk")>

I read from MSDN that the key is searched first from the same directory as
the solution and after from the output file.

BAsed on that if I complie my solution, I get an error message saying that
the file lang.snk cannot be find

The only way to make it compile was to specify the complete path fro the key.

How can I specify the relative path instead ?

thnaks for your help

AFAIK the path is calculated from the output directory. Try using
...\..\lang.snk
