Assembly name with spaces-how to uninstall programmatically

[GD]

Hi,

I need to uninstall an assembly from GAC programmatically. It only works on
the assemblies with no white spaces in the assembly name. I have tried
multiple combination without success. As there are while spaces in the name,
I have to put two double quotes on the two ends of the file name:

string strTestLib = "CF Test Lib For GAC"; //The dll without extension
string strCommand = "\" + strTestLib + \"" + " ,Version=1.0.9.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=70b83542ad6dde68";

or

string strCommand = '"' + strTestLib + '"' + " ,Version=1.0.9.0,
Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=70b83542ad6dde68";

Process.Start("cgacutil.exe", " /uf " + strCommand);

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Manually create a GAC file or make the registry entries. That's a way
around using cgautil altogetehr.

Or put entire assembly name in quotes:

string strCommand = "\" + strTestLib + " ,Version=1.0.9.0,Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=70b83542ad6dde68\"";
