Assemply and using Activator.Creat eInstance

Hello All,

If I load an Assembly (.DLL file) from Process (.Exe file)
using Activator.Creat eInstance() method are there or should
I remove Assemply (.DLL) from memory after using it with
Activator's method other method?

I would like to know that are there any possibilities that Assembly
will
remain in memory after process (.exe) is exited.

Have anyone of you any ideas about this?

Cheers!

Unloading assemblies from an AppDomain is a pain and not (IIRC)
recommended; any specific reason you want to do it? The other thing to
try is loading it in a separate AppDomain that you can trash
afterwards.

Maybe I misread your intent slightly:
after process (.exe) is exited


Well, if the /process/ ends, then everything loaded in that process
ends; it is, however, possible for a process to outlive the Main()
method if you fire up a non-background thread: the process lives as
long as there is a non-background thread alive - very useful for
writing server applications where the Main() method just kicks things
off.

IIRC you cannot unload an assembly from memory. You would have to create
another appdomain and then unload it. A PITA if you ask me.

It will not, it will be unloaded when your appdomain ends.

Hello everyone, I apologize for the cross and re-post, but I am still searching for an answer. Why can C++ can create this object, but C# can't? I am trying to create an instance of the default FTP asynchronous pluggable protocol adaptor, so I can analyse the traffic between urlmon.dll (IE) and the FTP server. The language I am attempting to use is C#.

The line with testType2 is explicitly trying to find a class called "name". The string "name" and the variable called name are completely independent things.
