I've been looking around, and can't find a direct answer for this anywhere. Pretty much, I have a program that runs fine in debug and I'm ready to publish it. I have one problem though. My friend gave me a custom API (.dll) to use, and now I get the following error when trying to publish:

Error 1 Assembly generation failed -- Referenced assembly 'CustomAPI' does not have a strong name

In short, how do I give it a "strong name"?

  • Please take a look at the following question complaining about the same problem you are facing: [c# - How to fix "Referenced assembly does not have a strong name" error (VS2005) - Stack Overflow](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/331520/how-to-fix-referenced-assembly-does-not-have-a-strong-name-error-vs2005).

  • How about going to property panel of the project, then to signing tab and add a signature to your project. – antew Nov 04 '12 at 12:41

If you can get the assembly's source then see these instructions. Otherwise, read this blog post.
