Re: shimming, signing and multiple assemblies

Hi

I recommend you strongname all the other assemblies, because Types in
strong-named assemblies can be called by partially trusted code only when
the assemblies have been marked with the AllowPartiallyTrustedCallers
attribute (APTCA).

NET Framework Assemblies and the AllowPartiallyTrustedCallers Attribute
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnnetsec/ht
ml/aptcatypes.asp

That is to say, assume there is a type defined in COMAddin
assembly(strongnamed), and the other assembly, which is not strongnamed
wants to call the type, you must marked the COMAddin assembly with APTCA,
which is not recommended.

But if the other assembly will not call the strongname one, you may just
leave them out.
