Created a DLL [TestLib] 2. Created a strong name using the utility sn.exe 3. In TestLib.dll project edited the AssemblyInfo.cs included the strong name[key value pair] as below. [assembly: AssemblyKeyFile("../../test.snk")] 4. After then recompiled the project. 5. using gacutil.exe i have installed the TestLib.dll into GAC[c:\winnt\assembly] 6.
