What is the concept of strong names ?


Twist :- How do we generate strong names or what is the process of generating strong names, What is use the of SN.EXE , How do we apply strong names to assembly, How do you sign an assembly? Strong name is similar to GUID(It is supposed to be unique in space and time) in COM components.Strong Name is only needed when we need to deploy assembly in GAC. Strong Names helps GAC to differentiate between two versions. Strong names use public key cryptography (PKC) to ensure that no one can spoof it.PKC use public key and private key concept.
