Hi !
I've developed a strong named assembly (dll) thats being used by a client
application(exe). Now i have a new version of the dll. I dont want to
recompile the client. Hence I just added a <bindingRedirect> entry in the
config file of the application. Both versions of the assembly are in the
GAC...but the client app still picks up the old verison only.

Any recommendations?

In particular, heres the log that i get:
=== Pre-bind state information ===
LOG: DisplayName = Engine, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=764034e4da632f6c
(Fully-specified)
LOG: Appbase = D:\Visual Studio 2003
Projects\WindowsApplications\StrongNameTest\Client\bin\Debug\
LOG: Initial PrivatePath = NULL
Calling assembly : Client, Version=1.0.2608.28205, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=null.

LOG: Safe mode is set (applyPublisherPolicy=no).

LOG: Post-policy reference: Engine, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=764034e4da632f6c


The Post-policy reference is also trying to get Version1.0...whereas I do
have a bindingRedirect that tells the app to pick version2.0
