I have a C# application that needs to use an assembly that has a strong name. I also need to use a number of older "C" dll's that are not signed.

How do I do this without having to "strong name" all of the "C" dlls?

If they are C dlls, they are probably not managed code and thus can't be
strong named. You would use them via p/invoke or COM interop (depending on
what they are). There aren't necessarily any special requirements to use a
strong named assembly anyway (all the Framework assemblies are strong-named
for example), so I'm not sure what the exact problem would be. Can you
explain more?
