Strong Names
-
Im creating a program which is signed. And ive referenced a usercontrol that I have made. But when I build it says: Error 1 Assembly generation failed -- Referenced assembly 'dll name here' does not have a strong name But surely if I signed the dll then the strong name file wont get included in the dll making it pointless? So how do I fix this? Keeping in mind I need to be able to install this on other pc's. Thanks
Strive to be humble enough to take advice, and confident enough to do something about it.

You're right, Microsoft has just strung us all along for the last eight years with assembly signing and strong names, all to find out it is pointless. :rolleyes: Strong Names Explained[^]
only two letters away from being an asset

Hi if you add strong name for one dll, then you should use strong name for all the places, where you use that dll. for example i have added strong name for one class library project and i need to use strong name where i use (refer) the class also...
