Can I convert an assembly to a Strong-Named assembly without recompiling?

Question

I found Microsoft KB article:

But it looks like they want me to recompile after I have created a key pair. Is there any way to just convert the assembly to a strong named assembly without recompiling?

Answer 1

You can use the Signer tool to sign an unsigned assembly.

Answer 2

You can.

Use the sn.exe and al.exe tools to strong name the assembly .
