hi,
I have compiled a .dll.
steps followed is try to upload the dll to global assembly
method 1: al /i:temp.dll
but this gives an error
method 2: gacutil /i temp.dll - this uploads dll to global assembly.

Next how can i use it.
if i type imports temp it gives error
its not shown in the references list also.

How shall i go about it.

Thanks
Arvind.

"al" is the Assembly Linker. You don't need that for this.
method 2: gacutil /i temp.dll - this uploads dll to global assembly.

The list of assemblies displayed by VS.NET is not dynamically generated,
but maintained in a list somewhere (there's a KB article about getting
your assembly listed in GAC).

However, just add a reference to a local copy of "temp.dll". Even
though you're referencing a local copy, .NET will use the copy from the
GAC when running.
