doubts regarding dotNet reflection

Hi Geeks,
Ihave a doubt in dotNet reflection. I m developing a tool which will

returns set of public(access specifier) methods of the selected
assembly.
this works completely fine, when the selected components are
standalone assembly(only one assembly no reference made during
compilation)
But say for instance
I have two dlls
dbmaster.dll
UIMaster.dll
the second dll refers the first dll(ie dbmaster.dll).
Now when i m trying to load the dll via Assembly.LoadFr om method
it is throwing dependency not found. Is there any work around.
For me i just need methods of the UIMaster.
How can i achieve this. is there anything other than Reflection will
help solve this problem?

firstly u should load dependent assembly. in your example "dbmaster.d ll"
must be in GAC.

Assembly.LoadFr om(..);//Load dbmaster.dll

And then load

Assembly.LoadFr om(..);//Load UIMaster

Hi Yunus,

Is it must that my dll should be in GAC. reflector.net does the
reverse enginneering even wen it is not loaded in GAC.

Even I am able get the method details if i dont have any references.

Can someone please provide more...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
