Properties

1. Purpose

This file is an assembly-level metadata configuration file (AssemblyInfo.cs) for the DTS.Common.IConnection.USBConnection.HIDUSBConnection .NET assembly. Its purpose is to define assembly-wide attributes such as title, version, COM visibility, and GUID—used for identification, versioning, and interoperability—but it does not contain any executable logic, interfaces, or types. It serves as infrastructure metadata required by the .NET build system and COM interop layer, with no runtime behavior or public API surface.

2. Public Interface

None.
This file contains only assembly-level attributes and no public types (classes, structs, interfaces, enums), methods, properties, or fields. All content is metadata declarations via Assembly* attributes.

3. Invariants

• The assembly is not visible to COM (ComVisible(false)), meaning its types cannot be accessed via COM unless explicitly exposed elsewhere.
• The assembly’s version is fixed at 1.06.0081 for both AssemblyVersion and AssemblyFileVersion.
• The assembly’s GUID is 9127ae79-928b-4187-a425-97f49034c5ad, used for COM type library identification (though irrelevant here due to ComVisible(false)).
• No runtime invariants apply, as this file contributes no executable code.

4. Dependencies

• Dependencies: None (this file has no external dependencies beyond the .NET Framework’s System.Reflection, System.Runtime.CompilerServices, and System.Runtime.InteropServices namespaces, which are implicitly available).
• Depended upon: None directly—this file is consumed by the build system and runtime metadata infrastructure, not by application code. Other modules in the DTS.Common.IConnection hierarchy may reference this assembly, but they do not depend on its metadata content.

5. Gotchas

• Versioning nuance: AssemblyVersion (1.06.0081) controls binding redirects and assembly identity at runtime, while AssemblyFileVersion is informational (used for file properties in Windows). Changing only AssemblyFileVersion does not affect runtime binding.
• COM irrelevance: Despite the explicit Guid attribute, ComVisible(false) renders the GUID unused for COM registration. If COM interop is needed, ComVisible(true) must be set and types must be explicitly marked with ComVisible(true).
• No functional impact: Modifying or deleting this file will not break runtime logic but may cause build warnings or break COM registration tooling (e.g., regasm) if used.
• Historical date: Copyright year is set to 2008; verify if this reflects current ownership or is legacy.
