Using GAC APIs in Whidbey

[Guest]

We use the GAC APIs documented in http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;317540 to install and uninstall assemblies in the GAC. With the Whidbey PDC preview of the .NET framework 1.2 the uninstall doesn't work. Calling IAssemblyCache::UninstallAssembly we get the undocumentation HRESULT 0x80131047 with the pulDisposition parameter set to 0

Any ideas

Any ideas?

You have to include the new ProcessorArchitecture attribute in the
assembly name you pass to UninstallAssembly for some assemblies. Use
Gacutil.exe /l from the Whidbey SDK to see the format.
