When i run the following command, which is in a .bat file
gacutil" /i somefile.dll
it appears to run fine, however my application that uses this dll doesnt work.
to get my application to work, i need to run
gacutil" /u somefile.dll then recycle the app pool then run
gacutil" /i somefil.dll then recycle the app pool.
Is there anyway using a batch file or if i made a .net app to do the registering of the files, that i would then be able to verify the dll was registered successfully in the GAC?
Appreciate any insight.

to register dll u need to follow this steps:
1. use sn tool to generate cryptographic key pair
i.e sn -k c:\mydll.snk
2. once the snk file was generated go back to your dll project in visual studio.
goto Properties ->Signing, check "sign the assembly" option and browse to the snk file.
3. rebuild the dll project.
4. use the following function to register/unregister and validate your dll:
static void Register(string dllFullPath, string gacutilPath, bool register)
{
string dllName = Path.GetFileNameWithoutExt
if (register)
{
if (Directory.Exists(string.F
{
Console.WriteLine("{0} already exists in GAC, skip ...", dllName);
return;
}
Process p = Process.Start(gacutilPath,
p.WaitForExit();
if (p.ExitCode == 0)
{
Console.WriteLine("{0} registered.", dllName);
}
}
else
{
if (!Directory.Exists(string.
{
Console.WriteLine("{0} is not registered in GAC, skip ...", dllName);
return;
}
Process p = Process.Start(gacutilPath,
p.WaitForExit();
if (p.ExitCode == 0)
{
Console.WriteLine("{0} unregistered.", dllName);
}
}
hope it helped u :)
