Below are three examples of useful application configuration files.

1. Forces the v1.0 CLR to be run. If the v1.0 CLR is not installed, the app will fail to run.

   <?xml version =”1.0″?>
    <configuration>
       <startup>
            <requiredRuntime version=”v1.0.3705″/>
            <supportedRuntime version=”v1.0.3705″/>
        </startup>
    </configuration>

2. Redirects “assemblyName, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=25283151a234958d“ to version 2.0.0.0 of that assembly. This is only useful for strongly-named assemblies, since versions don’t matter for those that are simply-named.

   <?xml version =”1.0″?>
   <configuration>
   <runtime>

           <assemblyBinding xmlns=”urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1″>

                   <dependentAssembly>
                           <assemblyIdentity name=”assemblyName” culture=”" publicKeyToken=”25283151a234958d”/>
                           <bindingRedirect oldVersion=”1.0.0.0″ newVersion=”2.0.0.0″/>

                   </dependentAssembly>
           </assemblyBinding>

   </runtime>
   </configuration>

3. Redirects “assemblyName, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=8968ee41e78ce97a“ to codebase “http://www.yourwebsite.com/filename.dll“. ‘Href’ can also be set to something like “file:///c:/localfile/filename.dll“. Note that redirecting to a codebase causes a System.Net.WebPermission or System.IO.FileIOPermissionAccess.Read + PathDiscovery demand when loading that assembly.

   <?xml version =”1.0″?>
   <configuration>
   <runtime>

           <assemblyBinding xmlns=”urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1″>

                   <dependentAssembly>
                           <assemblyIdentity name=”assemblyName” culture=”" publicKeyToken=”8968ee41e78ce97a”/>
                           <codeBase version=”1.0.0.0″ href=”http://www.yourwebsite.com/filename.dll”/>

                   </dependentAssembly>
           </assemblyBinding>
