GetCallingAssembly() question

[Marty]

Hi,

I am using C#.NET 2003.
First step:
When I call
System.Reflection.Assembly.GetCallingAssembly().GetName().Name;
in debug mode from the IDE, I get a specific Assembly name.

Second step:
Then I compile my project in debug mode, and run it fron the builded
..exe file.
I call again the
System.Reflection.Assembly.GetCallingAssembly().GetName().Name;
and I get a different assembly name for the same code as in first step.

Our application call dll#1, and dll#1 call dll#2.
In first step, dll#2 should return "calling assembly = dll#1", but it
return "calling assembly = dll#2".

Does it make sense? Any idea to get the same calling assembly name from
both step?

Regards,
Marty

Marty,

Without seeing some code, it is impossible to say. It sounds like it
would be relatively easy to duplicate. Can you create a project and post
it?
