Register todayIAssemblyCache interface (winsxs.h)
The IAssemblyCache interface can be used to install, uninstall, or query a side-by-side assembly. An instance of IAssemblyCache is obtained by calling the CreateAssemblyCache function.
The IAssemblyCache interface inherits from the IUnknown interface. IAssemblyCache also has these types of members:
The IAssemblyCache interface has these methods.
| IAssemblyCache::CreateAssemblyCacheItem The CreateAssemblyCacheItem method creates an item in the assembly cache that corresponds to the side-by-side assembly being installed. |
| IAssemblyCache::InstallAssembly The InstallAssembly method adds an application reference to an assembly to the side-by-side store and copies the files of the assembly to the side-by-side store. The files of the assembly being installed must be present in the current file system. |
| IAssemblyCache::QueryAssemblyInfo The QueryAssemblyInfo method queries the side-by-side assembly store for assembly information and validates the files in the side-by-side assembly store against the assembly manifest. |
| IAssemblyCache::UninstallAssembly The UnistallAssembly method removes an application reference to an assembly from the side-by-side store. |
