Sorry, forget the question... I just saw I can look in
c:\windows\assembly, and see the "last modified" date in the assembly
properties (based on that- the assembly gets updated).
That's what happens when you give a ansi C girl to handle .NET... :)

Subject: [WiX-users] Installing an assembly to the GAC - how does it act
inupdates?
Hi all,
I have a component with this line:
<File Id="yadayada" Name=" yadayada.dll" DiskId="1" Assembly=".net"
Source="c:\blabla\ yadayada.dll" KeyPath="yes"/>
That installs "YadaYada" to the GAC.
It seems to work fine, by I'm not fully convinced that minor updates of
our product update the assembly in the GAC as well.
The assembly file (DLL) is being changed quite regularly nowadays (it's
in development phase), but we don't change its version or name or
anything, just the code.
Does the assembly in the GAC gets replaced with the new one when we do
repair/minor updates? Or is it considered as "already exist" and
ignored?
If so- what is the best way to force the updated assembly to replace the
old one?
