Hello, I have loaded an assembly called 'Mscorlib.dll' and i wanted it to list all classes within the 'Mscorlib', which it does(using reflection). Now I want to add a function whereby the user inputs a class from the assembly and it gets all the methods from that class. How would i go around doing this? Any help would be nice ...
I was initially going to use a signed serialized xml file to store license details. In planning, more and more has moved into this "license file" which will allow for us to distribute a single application and control available functions via the supplied license file. The UI and printed reports are co-branded with distributors logos, so...
Is it possible to get the contents of a loaded .net assembly as a byte array or stream? What I'm trying to do is something similar to (of course the real scenario is much more complex, so just storing the buffer is not an option). byte[] bytes = GetTheBytes(); Assembly asm = Assembly.Load(bytes); byte[] bytes2 = GetAssemblyAsByteArray(...
Hello, there is a way of incrementing the version number of an assembly automatically if the assembly has changed after doing a build of the solution? I've tried with post-build events but then you increment the version on each build, not only if the build process has compiled anything due to changes. Thanks in advance. EDIT: What I ...
I've compiled an assembly for MySql.Data.dll and would like to add it to a new Visual Studio Project. I'm lost on the correct terminology and how best to go about this, but the end goal is to distribute this dll so that it's included with the application when the application runs. This is to avoid having to GAC the dll on the end user'...

Following this example I get the path from the GetExecutingAssembly().Location. For a web service however this will be a temp directory that co...
Ok, I've read every question on here about strong named assemblies and just want to clarify something. First though, from what I've read, GAC aside, strong named assemblies prevent a malicious 3rd party changing and impersonating your code. It'd be great to have some links to some real world examples of this kind of spoofing that happen...
I am trying to speed up the start-up of my Click-Once (.net 2.0 in VS2008) app by shipping the pre-generated XML serialization assemblies. So to test my scenario, I set VS2008 to break when an exception is thrown. Even though, the XML Serialization assemblies are there, there is still an exception, saying that it can't find or load t...

I have an MFC application which I am trying to package for deployment. It seems to depend on the files 'msvcr90.dll', 'msvcp90.dll' and 'mfc90.dll'. What is the correct way to distribute these files? I can't use merge modules as my installer doesn't support them. I know I can run VCRedist_x86.exe, but I don't want to do this for various...

I am a little confused about where .NET assemblies are physically located. Take good old Linq.

But where exactly is the DLL this refers to located? There's no path in the a...
