.net - Why is GUID attribute needed in the first place?

What is the necessity for the GUID attribute? why don't just let the compiler handle this automatically?!

If the compiler handled this automatically, you'd end up with one of two situations.

  • A new GUID every time you compiled - since GUIDs are supposed to be published, this would fail.

  • Collisions - if the GUID was the same every time, based on (say) a Hash of the name, multiple projects would end up using the same GUID for different purposes.

The existing approach - an explicit GUID gives developers the power to control these as required.
