- <P>
- The global assembly cache is a machine wide store used to
- hold assemblies that are meant to be shared by several applications on
- the machine. When the NGWS runtime releases its final version, assemblies will be installed in the cache using
- a new version of the Windows Installer. For Beta1 we ship a utility in the SDK
- called LM that can be used for this purpose. We also ship a
- Windows shell extension that allows you to look at the contents of the
- assembly cache. To see what's in your cache, just navigate to <%windir%>\assembly. </P>
- <P>All assemblies in the cache must have a shared name. The batch file
- included with this sample generates a key pair, builds an assembly with a shared
- name and installs it into the assembly cache.</P>
