Targeting application for a specific version

[Raj]

The GAC has two versions of a same assembly. How an application can
instantiate specific class from an assembly of a specific version?

Example:
The GAC has PublicCalculator V1 and PublicCalculator V2.

Query1:
The application need to instantiate classes of V1. ( to support backward
compatibility)
The application need to insantiate classes of V2 also!

Is it possible? if so, can I have code snippet?

Thank you

Regards
Raj

You specify it in the config file by adding the version number to the
assembly reference.
