.Net Strong Names

[JimKCC]

We are required to use strong names on all of our assemblies. Do the assemblies supplied with version 7.0 of Measurement Studio have strong names? It is my understanding that all third party controls we use must have strong names. I have had no luck using interop with Measurement Studio 6.0 controls. I've tried AxImp the way it was documented and always get a "dependency" error when trying to add a control with "Customize ToolBox".

"Do the assemblies supplied with version 7.0 of Measurement Studio have strong names?"

All of the Measurement Studio .NET assemblies have strong names. Also, in case you're looking for evidence for configuring security policy, the Measurement Studio .NET assemblies are also signed with an Authenticode ceritificate, so you can configure security policy via a publisher identity permission as well as a strong name identity permission.

"I have had no luck using interop with Measurement Studio 6.0 controls. I've tried AxImp the way it was documented and always get a "dependency" error when trying to add a control with "Customize ToolBox"."

Adding the control via "Customize ToolBox" should work. Could you please post the steps that you follow t
o reproduce this error? Also, could you please post a screenshot of this error or any additional information about this error message that you might have seen? Thanks.
