Assembly redirection problems...

[Sinex]

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

I dont want to deploy my dll to the GAC. Hence that eliminates the
possibility of using publisher poilicy file. I want the client
to make a change only in the app config.

BTW...is it a good idea to make bindingRedirect chages in the machine config
file?

Any recommendations?

Can you post that part of your config file? It sounds like it should
work.
