I am trying to use MSTest on our code base. Now I am running into different problems during this. We implicitly use _getDefaultName from Microsoft.Practices.EnterpriseLibrary.Data and it gets the default connection string in the current Assembly's App.config. Since this test project would be a new assembly/project it is not able to fin...

Guys lease help me out I think I'm close, but I'm missing something. Background I'm rewriting a SQL CLR assembly (stored procedure), my assembly contacts another resource and gets back XML. I want to return this XML as a recordset, NOT a scalar value. From what I've seen, this is how to return a recordset: SqlContext.Pipe.Send(mySqlD...

We all know that the assembly can be queried for attributes using the GetCustomAttributes method. I want to use this to identify an extension module for my application. However, to avoid loading every assembly I prefer a defensive approach: using Assembly.ReflectionOnlyLoadFrom to get more details about an assembly (has it my ModuleAtt...
I have several .NET applications in C#, along with an API for them to access the database. I want to put all versions of the API in the database, and have them pick the highest revision and build number, but stick with the major and minor number they were built with. Basically when I reference API 1.2.3.4 I want the reference to read 1.2...

Hi Gang, I am trying to make a Visual Studio AddIn that removes unused references from the projects in the current solution (I know this can be done, Resharper does it, but my client doesn't want to pay for 300 licences). Anyhoo, I use DTE to loop through the projects, compile their assemblies, then reflect over those assemblies to get ...

Hi All, I am struggling with an issue while loading an assembly up in a temporary AppDomain to read its GetUsedReferences property. Once I do that, I call AppDomain.Unload(tempDomain) and then I try to clean up my mess by deleting the files. That fails because the file is locked. I Unloaded the temporary domain though! Any thoughts o...

I was looking at the msdn documentation and I am still a little confused on what exactly is the difference between using LoadFile and LoadFrom when loading an assembly. Can someone provide an example or an analogy to better describe it. The MSDN documentation confused me more. Also, Is ReflectionOnlyLoadFrom the same as LoadFrom except t...
