reflection: IO error on build when using reflectiononlyl oadfrom

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...yloadfrom.aspx

When I open an assembly using Assembly.Reflec tionOnlyLoadFro m it loads
fine, but when I try to build that assembly (I'm using a winforms prog
to look at the assembly, VS to build it) I get an IO error on the
build. This seems a little counterintuitiv e. If I'm only reading it,
not executing code, why does it get locked down? And is there a way to
unlock it when I'm done looking at it? This seems to be a no-no but...

Read the articles Remarks-section. I guess that might solve your
problem.

[cit]
Dependencies are not automatically loaded into the reflection-only
context.
You cannot execute code from an assembly that has been loaded into the
reflection-only context. To execute the code, load the assembly with
the LoadFile method.
The assemblyFile parameter must refer to a URI without escape
characters. This method supplies escape characters for all invalid
characters in the URI.
The path specified for assemblyFile is relative to the current
directory. The assembly is loaded into the domain of the caller.

I am trying to use reflection to add an event handler for the RowUpdated event of the OracleDataAdapter object (ODP.NET), but the same thing can be said for SqlDataAdapter if you only use reflection. The code I supplied is based on the SqlDataAdapter with reflection. The error occurs when trying to create the delegate that will be passed in to EventInfo.AddEventHandler. I get the following error: An unhandled exception of type...

Hi everybody, I've run into a problem when using the reflection assembly on COM objects and been browsing around the net for some while. Apparently a few has asked the same question though no answer has ever occoured. This is what I'm trying to do: I wish to build a function that crawls any COM object (interop). I did shortly examine the serializer until I realized it's used for translation

I am just starting to work with reflection and I want to create a log that saves relevant information if a method call fails so I can call that method again later using reflection. I am experimenting a bit with what I need to do this and have the following code snippet. But first if I pass the assembly name and type to Activator.CreateInstance() it always fails. However if I walk my assembly and get a type value, the call to...

Hello, I develop a program to dump what are in an assembly using Reflection. I try both Assembly.LoadFile and Assembly.ReflectionOnlyLoadFrom. A problem is if a type of some field refers to other assembly, a FileNotFoundException is thrown. I found that ildasm can view the assembly without open the referenced assembly. Can I use Reflection? How can I solve this problem? Thanks,

Trying to use reflection to obtain the 4-part name of a strong named assembly (assembly, version, culture, publickeytoken) and immediately release the reference. I’m currently doing the following: Assembly projectAssembly = Assembly.ReflectionOnlyLoadFrom(projectAssemblyFullPath); fourPartName = projectAssembly.FullName; projectAssembly = null; The problem is that the reference to the assembly is still being held after

I have a C# logging assembly with a static constructor and methods that is called from another C# Assembly that is used as a COM interface for a VB6 Application. Ideally I need to build a file name based on the name of the VB6 application. A second choice would be a file name based on the # COM interface assembly. I have tried calling Assembly.GetCallingAssembly() but this fails when I use the VB6 client. Is there a way to get this...
