Chapters 5.1 and 5.2 have demonstrated the way .NET deals with assemblies and shared assemblies. DLL hell becomes a problem of the past when dealing with shared assemblies as the GAC is capable of hosting side-by-side versions of components , thus allowing client applications to use the proper version of a given component. In addition, application configuration files allow for binding changes without having to recompile and redistribute an application. All that is needed is the configuration file and a new version of the shared component, and clients then can use binding redirection to use the new shared assembly.
