Hi,
I installed infragistics winform 2009.1,
after installation, I found there are 2 directories in "XXX\Infragistics\NetAdvantage for .NET 2009.1\Windows Forms",
one is "BIn", another is "Bin - Signed".
which files should I use? what are the differences?
Thank you very much!
I have a similar question ... what is the difference between these two folders ?
C:\Program Files\Infragistics\NetAdvantage 2009.2\ASP.NET\CLR3.5\Bin
vs
C:\Program Files\Infragistics\NetAdvantage 2009.2\ASP.NET\CLR3.5\Bin\Design ( Design !? )
reg,EE.
The "Bin - Signed" directory includes files that are digitally-signed (through VeriSign) by Infragistics. The files are otherwise identical to what is in the "Bin" folder.
You would generally use the files from this directory if you have a requirement to use only digitally-signed assemblies. Vista Logo Certification has this requirement, for example.
If you don't have a specific need to use the digitally-signed files, I recommend against using them. The files from the "Bin" folder are used by default.
Accessing a digitally-signed file requires verification against the signing agency's Certificate Revocation List (CRL), which at best incurs a minor performance hit. See the following article from our online Knowledge Base for more details, including ways to mitigate this performance hit:FAQ: Digital Signing of assemblies in NetAdvantage for .NET 2007 Volume 1 for CLR 2.0
