Explain the role of assemblies in .NET.
Assemblies are main building blocks. An assembly maybe defined as a unit of
deployment. A single assembly is a collection of types, and resources. The CLR
does not understand any types that are outside assemblies. The CLR executes the
code in assemblies as they contain MSIL code. They define type, version and
security boundaries.
Assemblies in .Net are a solution to the Dll hell problem as one can use
different versions of same assembly in different applications at the same time.
To make a shared assembly, we need to register it with GAC where as private
assemblies reside in applications directory.
