[amibroker] Re: Amibroker Automation Object Model and C# in Visual Studio 2005

still digging... for broker.tlb (dll) to be usable for all visual 
studio programming languages, it seems it needs to be provided as 
a "shared assembly". A shared assembly needs "Strong names" - that 
is, the dll needs to be signed with a public/private key. This can 
be done once in Visual Studio 2005, by 

1. generating a key with the "sn" utility
2. signing the broker project using the signing tab in project 
properties(only Tomasz would be able to do this) 
3. once recompiled, the (signed) assembly can now be made universaly 
available through the global assembly cache by copy to 
windows\assembly (XP)

OR - am I digging in the wrong direction - and there is a much 
simpler solution to use the amibroker object model in C#/Visual 
Studio with late binding that just escapes me?

Jens Tiedemann
