Same problem: xxx.dll does not represent a strongly named assembly

Here is what we did:

1. checked "Delay Sign only" while kept "Sign the assembly" check
2. built, got UnsignedAddin.dll
3. ran Outlook, add-in cannot load
4. manualy sign from commoand line OK: ran sn -R unsignedAddin.dll
keyfile.pfx
5. ran Outlook, addin loaded OK.

6. built again
7. obfuscate the UnsignedAddin.dll =ObfuscatedUnsignedAddin.dll
8. ran sn -R ObfuscatedUnsignedAddin.dll keyfile.pfx
Got error message: obfuscatedUnsignedAddin.dll does not represent a strongly
named assembly

Any time you obfuscate you must delay sign your assembly and actually sign
it with that SNK or PFX after the obfuscation. Otherwise the
signature/strong naming is also obfuscated along with your code.

Can anyone recommend a obfuscator?

We tried Xenocode postbuild but got an error: "This assembly is not
strong name signed." Looks like the message came out of the
RunCaspolCommand method in the CaspolSecurityPolicyCreator.cs of the
SetSecurity project.

Can Dotfuscator handle addin and the security challenge?
