-Use **DelaySign-** if you want a fully signed assembly. Use **DelaySign** if you only want to place the public key in the assembly. The **DelaySign** option has no effect unless used with [**KeyFile**](#keyfile) or [**KeyContainer**](#keycontainer). The [**KeyContainer**](#keycontainer) and [**PublicSign**](#publicsign) options are mutually exclusive. When you request a fully signed assembly, the compiler hashes the file that contains the manifest (assembly metadata) and signs that hash with the private key. That operation creates a digital signature that is stored in the file that contains the manifest. When an assembly is delay signed, the compiler doesn't compute and store the signature. Instead, the compiler but reserves space in the file so the signature can be added later.
