Check Signing Key

[gnjunge]

Hi, I have two assemblies, strong name signed by using the same signing key file. One assembly opens the other assembly using reflection. In order to check whether it is the original assembly (created by me) that I am opening I would like to compare the strong name key of the two applications (which is the main proof that I created the second assembly and not somebody else). How do I do this? Assembly.GetName().GetPublicKey() seems the hash code of the assembly encrypted by de private key, instead of the public key. Thank you, Gidon

Maybe on the AppDomain.AssemblyLoad event you can check?

xacc.ide-0.1.1.11 - now with Settings & AutoComplete(kinda)

I may have missed the point here, but an alternative method of handling inter assembly security is to use StrongNameIdentityPermissionAttribute, it isnt perfect but it may suit what you need. http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/SecUtilexe.asp[^]
