Hi @ all :) I'm still new with C#, and I'm working on a project where we also use WPF, and the WPF DataGrid Toolkit (See at CodePlex), which hasn't yet been released into the framework. Due to the nature of the project, it's 100% sure we will be altering some controls of the assembly later. My co-workers have decided to redefine every ...
All I am fairly comfortable with writing assembly version information for a given project that will output as a DLL. However what I am looking to do now is to go through each DLL in a \Bin folder, retrieve the Assembly information and write it to a versions.txt file. Has anyone managed to acheive a similar goal? ...

I observe unmanaged.dll files having a unmanaged.dll.manifest file tagging along. On opening this files in an editor, it seems to be normal XML with links to certain other dependent managed? assemblies. This seems to be like a recent change.. don't remember seeing them earlier. Why are these files needed? (If I had to make a guess, it ...
I was curiious to know what type of structures you use for your project references? Where I work the developers have a shared folder called AssemblyCache (\\MACHINENAME\AssemblyCache) which is mapped to an R:\ via GPO in Windows 2008 AD (tied to the Developers AD group). Our shared components have post-build events that copy them to so...
According to this article rebasing is not necessary for .NET assemblies due to JIT compilation of the code. The article states: "JIT-compiled code does not have a rebasing problem since the addresses are generated at run time based on where the code is placed in memory. Also, MSIL is rarely affected by base address misses since MSIL re...
Let's say we have a solution with the following structure: Project.DAL - Data access layer, depends on a lower-level library, e.g. Oracle.DataAccess w/copy local = true Project.BLL - Business logic layer, references Project.DAL as project Project.UI - UI layer, compiles to executable, references Project.BLL, default project When Pr...
After reading the proper article in MSDN and related stackoverflow.com questions here, I finally return to the community. To which extent can a strong-named assembly be verified to avoid tampering? Is it possible to use strong-naming to verify an assembly author? The first question arises after reading this CSharp411 article, which ...
I have an assembly that is targeted for .NET 3.5. I have an application targeted for .NET 2.0 and wonder if I should have any trouble referencing the 3.5 assembly from the 2.0 application. I understand that the IL is supposedly the same, so I'm assuming that it will work, but would like to hear some experiences from others who have tri...
I'm doing a addin system where the main app loads assemblies Addin1.dll and Addin2.dll on runtime in new AppDomain's. However, in case that Addin1.dll is signed (strong name) with my key and Addin2.dll is not, I want to be able to only load Addin1.dll and reject Addin2.dll. I'm suspecting that it needs to be done by setting some parame...
I know there are several ways to deploy a .net windows client application: There's Windows Installer, Click Once, a simple download & run, and loading the windows forms / WCF application in Internet Explorer (no to confuse the latter with WCF/E - Silverlight RIA applications) So... thinking about the true windows client applications --...
Could someone please explain? I couldn't find anything on the internet, everything talks about how to go about it in some way, but nothing says exactly what it is. Also, what is a fully trusted assembly and how do they differ from one another? I have a MS certification exam and this is the only topic that I just don't understand. EDI...
Imagine the following solution: -Website ABC.com (not Web Application) -BLL (business logic layer in a seperate assembly) -DTO (dto objects in their own assembly) -DAL (data access layer in it's own assembly as well). The BLL has a reference to the DAL. The BLL has a reference to the DTO layer. The Website project references the BLL. ...
How can I make a Property "ReadOnly" outside the Assembly (DLL) for people using the DLL but still be able to populate that property from within the assembly for them to read? For example, if I have a Transaction object that needs to populate a property in a Document object (which is a child class of the Transaction class) when somethin...
What does it mean by logical grouping of modules in assembly? Can anyone please explain how .NET's CLR works with assembly ? ...
I've more than one ASP.NET 2.0 web site on IIS 6 and Windows Server 2003. Each site reference some DLLs: design, logic and so on. Each site is on a different ApplicationPool with default configuration about recycling techniques. Every DLL is strong named (not delayed) and has a version that never changes (2.0.0.0), all DLLs are placed i...
I've added a reference to a co-worker's COM DLL -- MyLogic.dll -- to my C# project in Visual Studio 2005. As expected, this auto-generates Interop.MyLogicLib.dll in my output folder. However, the version number of the COM DLL is 2.1.0.180, whereas the version number of the auto-generated interop assembly is 1.0.0.0. How do I get Visual S...
I've got a "diagnostics" page in my ASP.NET application which does things like verify the database connection(s), display the current appSettings and ConnectionStrings, etc. A section of this page displays the Assembly versions of important types used throughout, but I could not figure out how to effectively show the versions of ALL of ...
In Visual Studio 2008 I can add a project reference and set Copy Local property to true. As result the referenced assembly will be copied to the same folder the main assembly is build to. But what if I want to have all referenced assemblies in a subfolder near the main assembly? Something like this: .. myApp.exe Libs myLib1.dll my...
Hi, Is there any possiblity to read a .config file in a dll assembly? At the moment I use OpenExeConfiguration on a Assembly.Location Property which seems to work. But I want to create separate .config files for different usages like ConfigModuleA.config, ConfigModuleB.config etc. Any idea? ...
