Installaing assembly in GAC without strong name

[prateekbaxi]

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.
