Specifies assembly binding policy at the configuration level.
<configuration>
<assemblyBinding>
Syntax
<assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
<!-- Configuration files to include. -->
</assemblyBinding>
Attribute
| Description | |
|---|---|
| xmlns | Required attribute. Specifies the XML namespace required for assembly binding. Use the string "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" as the value. |
Parent element
| Description | |
|---|---|
| <configuration> | The root element in every configuration file used by the common language runtime and .NET Framework applications. |
Child element
| Description | |
|---|---|
| <linkedConfiguration> | Specifies a configuration file to include. |
Remarks
The <linkedConfiguration> element simplifies the management of component assemblies by allowing application configuration files to include assembly configuration files in well-known locations, rather than duplicating assembly configuration settings.
Note
The <linkedConfiguration> element is not supported for applications with Windows side-by-side manifests.
Example
The following example shows how to include a configuration file on the local hard disk:
<configuration>
<assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
<linkedConfiguration href="file://c:\Program Files\Contoso\sharedConfig.xml" />
</assemblyBinding>
</configuration>
