Mike -
in theory this is definitely possible, but I don't know of any tools that
would go and do it. There are several options that you may want to
investigate:
- use ildasm to disassemble and then ilasm it back again, this time with a
strong name;
- there is a set of unmanaged interfaces for reading/writing assembly
metadata in the runtime; it is possible using them to write a tool that does
what you need;
- in Whidbey there is probably going to be (or may be already in the Beta, I
don't know for sure) a possibility to use Reflection to fully read IL and
the metadata, so it should be possible to use the combination of Reflection
and Reflection Emit to roundtrip an assembly and sign it then.
