Fixes:dotnet/maui#30948
MSBuild task assemblies can run on .NET framework when building inside Visual Studio.
If you have a .NET 8, .NET 9, and .NET 10 project in the same solution, the best way to support this is to strong nameand version your assembly so that .NET framework can load multiple copies of it. This can also happen if you update the
$(TargetFramework)while a project is open.Unfortunately, #30948 uncovered an issue when .NET 9 and .NET 10:
Xamarin.Android.Build.Tasks.dll: strong namedXamarin.Android.Build.Tasks.dll:not strong namedXamarin.Android.Build.Tasks.dll:not strong namedI suspect this went wrong in003f5d1, but we didn't notice it until now because .NET 8 was strong-named and .NET 9 was not.
To fix this, we simply need to set
$(SignAssembly)totrue.Prior to003f5d1, this was set to false because the ILRepack process signed at the end of the repacking. When ILRepack was removed, we forgot to enable strong name signing! Whoops!
