Strong name the package

[egeskov]

As a consumer of the NuGet package I like the project to be strong named, to be able to strong name my own project.

1. Generate a key.
   sn -k UUID.Net.snk
2. Add the following to project files:

   <SignAssembly>True</SignAssembly>
   <AssemblyOriginatorKeyFile>UUID.Net.snk</AssemblyOriginatorKeyFile>

Hey, I have seen this feature request, currently don't have a lot of time on my hands atm,

Im looking into this but seems microsoft longer ships sn with dotnet.

Would nuget package signing be enough or?

Thanks for your time and effort. Unfortunately, signing the NuGet package will not allow referencing projects to be strong named, as all dependencies must be strong named. "The Strong Name tool is automatically installed with Visual Studio. To start the tool, use Visual Studio Developer Command Prompt or Visual Studio Developer PowerShell." https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/tools/sn-exe-strong-name-tool Kind regards / Anders
