How to load an external assembly with references?

[W. Jordan]

Hello,

I am trying to load an assembly A which references an external assembly B,
by using Assembly.LoadFile method. A was loaded but B was not.
When I try to invoke a method in A, which requires assembly B, it fails.
How can I solve this?

Hello, W.!

There are several ways how to resolve.
- you can load assembly B prior to A
- put B's path into binding redirection config.

Have a loot here how runtime locates assemblies

Thank you for your reply.

I tried loading B prior to A. However, an object OBJ created with the method
in A was used as an ExtentionObject for an XSLT file. The XSLT file
reported that it could not locate B, when it tried to execute a method
provided by OBJ.

I forgot to say that the B is in another drive, the binding redirection
does not work in such a scenario. And what's more, is it possible
not to modify the configuration file?
