correct assembly version

[Guest]

Hello.

How can I inform the user that he is not using the correct assembly?
Something like: "You have version 1.1 installed but you need version
1.2! Good Bye"

Is the question too stupid - because I didn´t find anything using
different search engines...

Greetings and a big thanks,
Tim.

You don't give precise details of your scenario, but dependent on what
exactly you are trying to do you could possibly subscribe to the
AppDomain.AssemblyLoad event and check the version of the assembly that gets
loaded.

Hello Tim,

You can load the assembly, using Assembly.LoadWithPartialName and after that,
using System.Version ver = localAssembly.GetName().Version determine which
version is used
