I have a .net assembly that has a COM+ ServicedCopmonent in it and at the moment I install it into the GAC to get everything working. This means that I need to have every assembly that it references in the GAC as well.
During development it is quite painful to make changes to thes assemblies, re-install them to the GAC and then test.
Is it possible to maintain the COM+ component but not have everything in the GAC?
No, you don’t have to install it in the GAC. You can use regsvcs (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/04za0hca.aspx) with /appdir parameter to specify explicitly where the app is located.
