C# - Retrieve Info In DLL Assembly About Calling Assembly?
Jun 25, 2012I have created several DLL (.NET) libraries that are used in several projects. In these DLL libraries I want to know/retrieve which assembly (EXE) calls/uses the library, so if possible I want to know info like assembly name (EXE), strong name, version number, etc.
NB: Examples may be in C# or VB. I use both languages.
Ignoring Assembly Info When Deserializing
Feb 5, 2011I'm writing a solution in VB.NET that consists of a number of different components (UI manager, Outlook add-in, etc.). In the main UI program I'm serializing out an arraylist to a data file that contains the data the other components will need to do their jobs. That part works fine, and I can serialize and deserialize with no problem. Now I want to read (deserialize ) in the data in my Outlook add-in, and I ran into the dreaded 'Unable to find assembly' issue where it's looking for the original assembly that serialized the data. I found a hint for workaround

Apr 17, 2012How to set current year in AssemblyInfo file?
I used
Instead of this:
<Assembly: AssemblyCopyright("Copyright 2012, Company Name.")>
tried this:
<Assembly: AssemblyCopyright("Copyright" + DateTime.Now.Year.ToString() + ", Company Name.")>
I get invalid constant error.
I don't want to use registry key entries, what is the optimum way of doing this? (so that when a user right clicks on EXE & looks for assembly information can see current year).

View 1 RepliesIDE :: Visual Studio 2010 Reference Path To Local Assembly Won't Change?
Jul 20, 2010We have upgraded our project from Visual Studio 2008 to Visual Studio 2010 without any issues until now. Our project contains a folder call Libraries which contains different versions of Oracle ODP.NET DLL's as well as different versions of Telerik DLL's. Our project contains references to one of the versions of each. The problem is once we remove the reference and re-add it by browsing to the new version, again inside the Libraries folder inside the project, it adds the reference, but to the same version we just removed. We can even copy the DLL to our desktop, remove the reference and add to the new one on our desktop and it still will point to the Libraries folder version???. The only we we can actual change the reference to the new DLL is by manually changing the path in the .vbproj file, which is obviously not going to work for us. The same behaviour worked perfectly in VS 2008. We switch our references quite often, when new versions come out, but also far more often to QA different versions of ODP.NET and Telerik Control DLL's, so manually editing the .vbproj file is becoming quickly cumbersome. If I browse to a specific version at a specific path, Visual Studio should ALWAYS do what I'm telling it to do..
I did some seaching and came across a few other people with the same issue. This better not be as designed and if it's a bug, which I believe it to be, when will it be fixed?[URL]..

C# - Loading An Assembly Using Assembly.LoadFrom() As The Assemblies Are Located In A Different Path?
Apr 2, 2012I am loading an Assembly using Assembly.LoadFrom() as the assemblies are located in a different path from Application Base directory.
Dim oAssembly As Assembly = _
Assembly.LoadFrom("C:\MyFolder\" + ddlXlate.SelectedItem.ToString() + ".dll")
And I consume a Type from that assembly without any problem:
oXML = CType(oAssembly.CreateInstance(sBaseType + ".XlateContainer"), _
XlateBase.XlateContainer)
However, the problem occurs when I try to use a Type from this assembly from within another method like the one below:
oComboBox.DataSource = _
[Enum].GetValues(Type.GetType(sType + "+ItemEnum," + sAssemblyName))
sAssemblyName is the one I loaded using LoadFrom() actually. After it said it cannot find the assembly, I used AssemblyResolve event which solved my problem :Subscribing AssemblyResolve event :
AddHandler AppDomain.CurrentDomain.AssemblyResolve, _
AddressOf MyResolveEventHandler
Event Handler Method:
Private Shared Function MyResolveEventHandler(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal args As ResolveEventArgs) As Assembly
Return Assembly.LoadFrom("C:\PSIOBJ\" + args.Name + ".dll")
End Function
And I thought maybe the error occurs because it cannot find a dependent assembly defined in assembly manifest file I loaded using LoadFrom() already but when I checked the args.Name, I saw it was trying to load same assembly and after that it worked without any problem. So basically a type in the loaded assembly cannot be found before the event adding change.
My old code was using AppDomain.CurrentDomain.Load() and Assembly.Load() methods and they were working fine without the AssemblyResolve event. I was able to reach types in dynamically loaded Assembly from every where within the same AppDomain.
LoadFrom() can find dependencies automatically within the same requested assembly path and that couldn't be problem as everything this dll needs was there. So at first it looked like a AppDomain problem to me as it looks like it seems it can reach assemblies from Load context instead of LoadFrom context and I am now using LoadFrom context.But now it seems I should pass oAssembly instance evertwhere to use any type from the loaded assembly?Doesn't it load the assembly where I can reach it everywhere (same AppDomain) using simple Type.GetType(...) method?
"Unable To Emit Assembly: Referenced Assembly?

View 1 RepliesDeployment :: Referencing Assembly From Another COM Enabled Assembly?
Apr 7, 2009I have written a .net assembly which plugs into to a third party COM application. The .net assembly is COM visible to the third party application. However this .net assembly references other regular assemblies. If I put these assemblies in the GAC the COM visibile assembly sees them without a problem. However for various reasons I do not want to put them into the GAC but I cannot get my COM visible assembly to see the other assemblies when they are in other locations. I have tried putting them in the same directory as the COM visible assembly. I have tried putting them in the same directory as the third party app's exe but neither of these work.

"System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could Not Load File Or Assembly" When The Assembly Does In Fact Exist?
Oct 8, 2009One of them is giving us trouble in only 1 spot out of the 4 spots we use it at:The trouble spot is a windows form project that uses reflection to dynamically load some DLLs that run long running processes. One of these long running processes is an agent that relies on one of our vender DLLsWe're getting the missing assembly exception at the point where we first enter a function that references the library. I already checked the silly things such as if we had forgotten to move a reference from the old version to the new version, but that's not the case. I also checked the bin directory of the project and the assembly is there.
