Assembly versioning

[mike]

Hello.

If I have a .dll registered in the GAC and I deploy a web application that
has the same .dll in its "bin" directory, which .dll does the .Net runtime
use?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

The runtime will look in the GAC before probing for the assembly. See
the topic "How the Runtime Locates Assemblies" in the docs for
details.
