Remarks

The value set for DotNetAssemblyName must include the full path to the assembly, unless the assembly is registered in the global assembly cache (GAC), deployed in the same directory as the Merge Agent executable, or deployed in the same directory as the application that synchronously invokes the Merge Agent.

The DotNetAssemblyName property must be set before calling RegisterBusinessLogicHandler.

Any user can retrieve or set the DotNetAssemblyName property.
