Assembly.Load(string name)

[TS]

for some reason i have code in a projcect that uses this method and it
works. i have almost the exact same project/files (i just renamed some
stuff) in another directory. the code works in the 1st application and the
name of the parameter is just the name of the assembly, real short. the
assembly to load is not strong named.

why doesnt the exact code work in the other application as well???
thanks

Could you perhaps provide a complete example which shows the issue?
Without seeing one, it's very difficult to tell.

Hi TS,

Can you tell me where does the assembly that you wanted to load reside?
Does it reside in a private directory or GAC? Assembly.Load method uses the
standard CLR loading context and its probing order is listed below:
"How the Runtime Locates Assemblies"

Also, you may use Fuslogvw.exe tool to examine the details CLR loader logs:
"Assembly Binding Log Viewer (Fuslogvw.exe)"

Thanks.

thanks, the problem was that i was trying to load an assembly in a component
referenced by the web app. i had a reference to this assembly from this
component but not from the web application, so i removed the reference in
the component and moved it to web app and it work.

thanks
