Application customization in dotnet

[Marco]

Hi experts!

For customization purpose i need to substitute a class that is
implemented within an assembly, with a new class (with the same name).
I haven't the sources but I'd like to rewrite this class so that the
application will consider my new class and not the original in a
similar way that java allows with the CLASSPATH variable settings.

Is there a way to obtain this behaviour?

Thanks in advance.

Nope no way, to allow that would be to ask for Trojan Hell

To the MainPoster: You might want to research on AOP and C#. There might be
ways that you can hook into the C# class behavior. I dont know if some
provide a 'instead of' methods.
