Not applicable.
This class is used to ensure that callers are registered in the global assembly cache (GAC).
The scope of the declaration that is allowed depends on the SecurityAction value that is used.
The security information declared by a security attribute is stored in the metadata of the attribute target and is accessed by the system at run time. Security attributes are used only for declarative security. For imperative security, use the corresponding permission class, GacIdentityPermission.

| In the .NET Framework versions 1.0 and 1.1, demands on the identity permissions are effective even when the calling assembly is fully trusted. That is, although the calling assembly has full trust, a demand for an identity permission fails if the assembly does not meet the demanded criteria. In the .NET Framework version 2.0, demands for identity permissions are ineffective if the calling assembly has full trust. This assures consistency for all permissions, eliminating the treatment of identity permissions as a special case. |

The following example demonstrates the use of GacIdentityPermissionAttribute.
' To run this sample you must create a strong-name key named snkey.snk ' using the Strong Name tool (sn.exe). Both the library assembly and the ' application assembly that calls it must be signed with that key. ' To run successfully, the application assembly must be in the global ' assembly cache.
