I have created a custom Button with some extra properties. I want to register it in my Application Page like this

<%@ Register Namespace="Test1.Test2.Helpers" Assembly="Test1.Test2" TagPrefix="test" %>

But it casts an exception and saying something like it cannot find the assembly.

You need to deploy the assembly to GAC and use the fully qualified Name in assembly tag as:

<%@ Register Tagprefix="MyControls" 
    Namespace="KM.MyControls.MyControl" 
    Assembly="KM.MyControls, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=<Your token>" %>

Then you can reference your User Control

   <MyControls:MyUserControl runat="server"/>

  • It is same assembly which contains the application page so it must be GAC:ed ? and I just added a useul class which inherits from Button class

  • add the "Test1.Test2" assembly to GAC.

  • It is not User Control, It is a normal class which is derived from Button and it is in the same project that contains the Application Page (SharePoint Project) which is already GAC:ed

  • So just add fully qualified name to your assembly tag.
