What is versioning in .NET?

Answer Posted / shilpi gulati

A .net assembly version consists of four main parts 1.0.0.0(default version) (major.minor.build.revision).
In order to maintain several instances(with minor/major changes) of same assembly concept of versioning of assembly was introduced.With the help of version number we can keep various instances of same assembly.Each version has different number with default starting from 1.0.0.0.With every change the version number gets incremented,thus removing the dll hell problem and providing programmers with strong assembly names which will never clash with each other.
