assembly in GAC doesn't work

Hi everyone,

I've created a shared assembly and istalled it to the windows\assembly folder.
I see the assembly in the list of all the other assemblies.

But in Visual Studio 2005, when I want to add a reference, this assembly
isn't in the list with .NET assemblies. What is the cause of this problem?

thanks!

Filip

It is not a problem. You simply cannot reference an assembly in the GAC.

But how can I use it?
In code the namespace is LessiusSecurity and the class is LessiusSecurity
In the assembly folder, there is LessiusSecurity.

But using LessiusSecurity raises an error
