What do you understand about assembly in VB.NET? What do you understand about Strong Name with reference to a .NET assembly?

Answer»

Assemblies are a component of .NET applications and are CONSIDERED to be the main part of all .NET apps. They can be either a DLL (Dynamic Link Library) or an executable file. The two forms of assemblies are as follows:

  • Private - Private assemblies are those that are only utilised by one application and are kept in the application's directory.
  • Public - Public assemblies, also known as shared assemblies, are saved in the Global Assembly CACHE (GAC), which can be ACCESSED by several programs.

Strong Name is NOTHING but a feature of .Net whose usage lies in uniquely identifying shared assemblies. A strong name is a solution to the problem of several objects with the same name being CREATED, and it may be assigned using Sn.exe.
