Loading the .Net SDK

If you relied on us loading HP.HPTRIM.SDK.dll into the GAC you may have noticed that the 93 installer no longer does this, which has eliminated a number of messy deployment issues for us. For more information see the Microsoft guidelines re GAC installation.

The good news

A key benefit of GAC installation was the ability to write version agnostic SDK applications, the good news is that you can still do this. All you need to do is intercept the assembly loading pipeline and you can specify that HP.HPTRIM.SDK.dll gets loaded from the location specified in the registry.
