Unable to build assembly

[Guest]

HI

I am working with vb.net 2.0 and trying to build a setup file. But get this
error. How to solve this:

Unable to build assembly 'myassembly' into the Global Assembly Cache; the
assembly is not strongly named.

thanks

Hi,

You will have to generate the strong name for your assembly to add it to the
GAC.

Right Click on your project from VS 2005, on the project property page that
would appear, go to the 'Signing' tab and check the check box 'Sign the
Assembly'. Select New from the dropdown below to generate a strong name key
file for your assembly. In the dialog, type in the name of the Key file (and
your password if you need), then click OK. A strong key file name will be
generated for your assembly with the extension snk. This should solve your
problem.

Rgds,
