Do I have to put assembly using COM+ transaction in GAC?

[Guest]

I am currently working on .net 1.1 and want to use COM+ Transaction. Do I
have to put assembly using COM+ transaction (specific class inheriting from
ServicedComponent) in GAC? as per my understanding NO. I can but I don't have
to put assemblies using COM+ transaction in GAC. Is my understanding right?

Nope, it has to be signed (strong named) but not in the GAC.

Arif,

You could use dynamic registration for your component, allowing .NET to
register in COM+ for you. However, I don't think that this is a good idea
in general. The nature of COM+ components is that they are available
system-wide (except for private components in an app) and installing your
components in the GAC would fall in line with that exposure.

Hope this helps.
