How to know which application is using an Assembly in GAC? I want to remove unwanted assemblies from GAC but it is not getting removed as it is used by some other application.
View 2 RepliesI just want to create Shared Assembly and use that assembly in our application.I am using VS 2005.
Step 1
I am trying to build a dll.
Create class library project <TestDllHell>.
Under that project add CalculationArea.cs file.
[Code]....
Then TestDllHell.dll add into GAC successfully.
Now I want to use it in my Website project so did the following steps but unable to view that dll in .Net Reference List Box.
•I go for Run regedit to edit the Windows Registry.
•Navigate to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoft.NETFrameworkAssemblyFolders key.
•Right click on the AssemblyFolders key, then select New > Key. Enter the name of your assembly (without the .dll extension).
•Double click on the key's (Default) value. The Edit String dialog will appear. Enter the full path of the folder where your assembly resides. Note that all assemblies in that folder will appear in the Visual Studio list.
•IMPORTANT! You must exit and restart Visual Studio to see your assembly in the Add Reference dialog.
My question is that
How can I get that dll in my add reference assembly List .Net section?
And if I modify that dll(TestDllHell.dll) then again register in GAC then version will be different,So how can I told my client application that which dll you choose?
I have recently discovered that I am affected by this bug http://www.mail-archive.com/mono-bugs@lists.ximian.com/msg71515.html
Well,at http://www.mail-archive.com/mono-bugs@lists.ximian.com/msg71529.html they say the work around is to create a global policy assembly and redirect the assemblies that way since it is not read from the web.config.
How do you actually do what they describe there? There is a huge documentation gap in that area with Mono.Also,I can't just recompile the assembly to use the new Mono assembly versions because the assembly is closed source.(but it does work with Mono.)
I deployed an ASP.NET web application last night and I when I woke up this morning it was very slow and would occasionally just throw a 'Service Unavailable' error.
I checked the Event Viewer and it was filled up with these errors:
An unhandled exception occurred and the process was terminated.
Exception: System.Runtime.Serialization.SerializationException
Message: Unable to find assembly 'MonoTorrent, Version=0.80.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'
I'm puzzled as it was working perfectly when I deployed it (MonoTorrent is required to retrieve the number of seeders/leechers for a certain torrent off the tracker - this was working fine), but it's no longer working and whenever code that uses MonoTorrent gets involved, the worker process just crashes.
MonoTorrent.dll is in the /bin/ directory.
UPDATE 6/4/10: I compiled the MonoTorrent source code in with the rest of my web application, but it still crashes whenever it uses MonoTorrent. However, it now says that it is Unable to find assembly 'OpenPeer, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null. Here, OpenPeer is the name of the web application's assembly.
I have read under: Compiling Web Application Projects [URL]
... this compilation model creates a single assembly, you can specify attributes, such as assembly name and version.
You can supply a PATH (directory name only) in the Visual Studio "Build Options".
But where can the file name for the assembly be specified?
i have a website and in it is an application with website administration. It is possible to load an assembly from website in administration application? E.G:
WebAdmin project (web application) : in default.aspx i want to load assembly ClassLibrary1.dll and create instance of type ImportProvider. WebAdmin doesn't have reference to ClassLibrary1.
Configuration in IIS:
Application directory "admin" (WebAdmin project) is in Website1
I wasnt sure where this question best belongs, in the end I figured this was the best place...
Say I have a utility dll that i might use in either a windows console application or in an asp.net web application - how can I programatically find whether it is running on web or windows, from within the dll?
I feel like this is something I should know by now, maybe some property of AppDomain.CurrentDomain, or Environment, but I just can't find it.
The reason I'm asking is because I'm playing around with nHibernate for asp and I seem to need different session handling when running in asp.net, compared to when i'm running integration tests. So if someone knows how i can solve this without programatically checking the context of the application, then that'd be great too.
I have a project that was originally created in VS2005 using .net 2.0. I currently have win 7 machine and vs2008. When I try to compile the application it comes back saying that I am missing an assembly Web.Services2 Besides upgrading to 3.5 and having to rebuild most of the web services.
View 1 RepliesIn a Web Application project in VS08, how do you create an assembly? E.g. you derive a class based on HtmlGenericControl to form your own div, override the ClientId and UniqueId properties, so as not to get screwed up id's on the client-side, and then you want to use/reference this control in an aspx page.
refer to David Lively's answer (c# control names) regarding the same thing. I have tried his solution but I keep getting "could not load assembly file".
i was wondering if visual studio 2010 can be used as an assembly editor too????if yes where do i have to go to create a first blank page for an assembly project?
View 1 RepliesBefore using any class in your website project/page we have to add it's assembly reference to our project. Right?
Now, when I am using SmtpClient class from System.Net assembly after adding the System.Net.Mail namespace in namespace node of application's web.config file but without adding assembly reference to the project, it still accepting and running the code. Why?
I enquired the machine's web.config file located at C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727CONFIG but didnt find assembly reference for System.Net there also.
So bit confused how it is working and where the assembly reference has been added and how?
I'm getting following warning
Assembly generation -- Referenced assembly 'System.Web.dll' targets a different processor

I am developping the ERP Web Application. My solution structure is as given below. Main Web Application - Having reference to All Module Web Application.

It refer Common Web Application to reduce redundacy. In this Context we are facing the following problem.

2) Could not Debug both Module and Common Web Application.
3) In Design Time both Master or user control not renders in refered Aspx Page.

View 6 RepliesCan anyone tell me if its possible for a site or application that is running against .net 2.0 to call an assembly that was compiled using the 4.0 framework?
I always thought that this was possible, however when I try and add the reference to Visual Studio, I get an error saying that its not happy with the difference in versions.
I created this website and it work fine on local machine but when i upload it to remote server then it throws error that it cant find assembly....
The assembly is not in my Bin folder and i can not find it in my machine or at least don't know where to look.

I created a custom virtual path provider and build provider and was wondering if it was possible to somehow specify the name of the assembly that get's generated, rather then letting asp.net come up with a name?

View 3 RepliesI need to compile a class library (DLL) from an ASP.NET source. Now when I try to build it says this:
The type
'System.ComponentModel.ISupportInitialize'
is defined in an assembly that is not
referenced. You must add a reference
to assembly 'System, Version=2.0.0.0,
Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'.
Now I know that I have to put it in the web.config file. But there is no web.config file it's just the source of the dll that needs to be compiled.
I need to know which version of the report viewer control is used on a web server. If I can find it without asking it would be nice.Is there a way, by code, to find out which version of the assembly is used on the server?

View 2 RepliesI've installed MVC3 on VS2010 Professional 4 times now and the default web project complains because it's missing System.Web.Mvc.I used the PI twice, and manually uninstalled/installed another two times.I can't add a .NET reference to MVC because it's not there. I downloaded and compiled the binaries, but the compiler fails because the gac thinks there are two definitions for MVC. I can't find MVC, though.There are no problems with I install MVC2.How can I install MVC3 so it appears in my project References folker, or in the .NET gac?
