- Assemblies are the physical files that contain compiled code. The extension is .exe if they are stand-alone application and .dll if they are resuable components.
- All .NET classes are contained in assemblies.
- This is a solution to DLL Hell problem. DLL Hell problem occurs because multiple versions of the COM component are not allowed to installed.
- .Net framework installed all the assemblies to C:\Windows\Assembly directory.
- An assembly can contain multiple namespaces.Namespaces are a logical way to group classes. Assemblies are a physical package for distributing code.
- Some microsoft assemblies are mscorlib.dll, System.Web.dll
- An assembly can be shared between applications by placing it in the Global Assembly Cache. Assemblies must be strong-named before they can be placed in the Global Assembly Cache.
There are 3 types of assembly in C#.Net
- Private assembly:
A private assembly normally used by a single application and is stored in applications directory.
- Shared assembly:
A shared assembly is normally stored in global assembly cache and can be used by multiple applications.
- Satellite assembly:
Satellites' assemblies are employed in a multi languages context such an application dedicated to a wide number of people issued from different cultures.
- You can use Gacutil commandline utility to install or uninstall assembly to GAC.
To install:
Gacutil -i assemblyName
To UnInstall:
Gacutil -u assemblyName
