Chris Moseley on Web Development

  • About Me

    I'm Chris Moseley. I'm currently living in the UK and working as a lead programmer for Senior Internet Ltd. I specialise in high quality web application development using the latest techniques and mainly Micorosoft technologies.

  • Shared assemblies, without the GAC

    One of the projects I've been working on recently required each of our web applications to have their own IIS websites and bespoke files (master pages, images, styles etc.) but also each have access to a shared code library which would reside in a central location on the server. Dealing with the shared UI layer (pages, controls etc) was easy, we could just set up a virtual directory in IIS 'SharedCode' and point it to the central location. Dealing with the assemblies generated from our shared code library (C#) projects and having them reside in a central location, outside of each application however, was not so straight forward.
