Dinamically loads unreferenced dlls

[Ronchese]

Hi all.

I'm planning build a user interface program that loads several dlls from a
file list (like plugins). That dlls are not referenced on my program.

That dlls can be build for any person, using one specific interface, and
just added to file list and the my program will be able to load it.

How can I do it using pure .Net?

Thx in advance.

Yes, this can be done with managed code. Basic plugin sample:
