Editing information in AssemblyInfo.cs

The AssemblyInfo.cs file contains information about the assembly, which you can customize. This information displays when you view the generated DLL’s properties (that is, right-click on the DLL in Windows Explorer and select Properties).

Note

This file is used when building the assembly in Workbench or with the batch file. If you’re using the .csproj file to build the assembly, you don’t need to use an AssemblyInfo.cs file. Instead, open the project in Visual Studio and specify the information there.

The generated AssemblyInfo.cs file includes default values for some of the attributes, as shown in the sample below. If desired, you can add values for the other attributes. For example, you may want to implement a version numbering system. We do not recommend changing the value for ApplicationActivation.

ApplicationName("MyApplication")
ApplicationActivation(ActivationOption.Server)
ApplicationAccessControl(false)
AssemblyTitle("")
AssemblyDescription("")
AssemblyConfiguration("")
AssemblyCompany("")
AssemblyProduct("")
AssemblyCopyright("")
AssemblyTrademark("")
AssemblyCulture("")
AssemblyVersion("1.0.0.0")
AssemblyKeyName("")
