Hi,

I am a c# newbies..

I am having some problems with my dll it sometimes get's added to my
cache even I don't want it to land there.
My assembly is added to the cache here:
C:\Documents and Settings\<USERNAME>\Local Settings\Application
Data\assembly\dl3\P1ZM0W08.2LP\GQ9AD27V.M5C\8eb9c117\84f16698_922fc701

This causes all kinds of problems for me since I have a dependency to a
legacy dll that I want to load from my asseambly.

Does anyone have a referency to some documentation on what is going on?

Regards

I found out that the files end up in my 'downloaded cache'. How do I
turn this off?

I can see the assemblies by using gacutil /ldl and clear the
downloaded cache by using gacutil /cdl

Came closer looks like shadow copying of files is turned on.. now I
just have to find out how to turn that off!!

Found the answer to the problem I was using NUnit gui which does always
do shadow copying!
I the console mode there is an option to turn if off and it works....
