FileNotFound Exception after Assembly.LoadFi le

Tom
I load an assembly via

Assembly assembly=Assemb ly.LoadFile(ass emblyName);

....

foreach(Type t in types)
{
attribs=t.GetCu stomAttributes( typeof(MayaPane lAttribute),tru e);
}

When Get Custom Attributes is called I get a FileNotFound Exception
for one of the Assembly that this references. What am I doing wrong?

Any Help appreciated

The exception should tell you which file is missing (e.g. you may use a try/catch block, and investigate the exception). Do you have that file?
If you have that file, make sure that it has the same signature as the the one which is referenced (version, public key, etc).

Hope that helps.

I've just read Christoph Schittko's article on XmlSerializer: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnxmlnet/html/trblshtxsd.asp . . . and very informative it is too. I, too, am getting nasty FileNotFound exceptions. I've read, and digested the article, and I think I've found a bug -- it's difficult to track, though it does happen often.

Hi Our scenario is: Various business objects on a server using interfaced-based remoting being called by a thick Windows client - all written in .NET 1.1. Objects are running under a domain admin/domain user account and hosted as a Windows Service on Windows 2003. In some situations, instead of receiving a "normal" exception or one of our custom exceptions we receive the following:

I'm designing an application framework which will, amongst other things, live in an assembly hosted in the ASP.NET worker process, servicing webservice requests. Here's the scenario: APPFX is our application framework assembly. It has no life of its own - it's designed to provide components that are glued together by another, main application assembly - let us call it APP. Thus, APP uses APPFX, and APP is registered with ASP.NET as a...

What is the best strategy for dynamic loading private assemblies in asp.net? I understand, and have confirmed, that any dll placed in the app's /bin dir will get loaded on startup. This is not desirable. I have a web service that, based on an input parameter, dynamically loads A, B or C library. I also understand that an separate AppDomain is needed to explicitly unload the Assembly. No other apps will use these assemblies. Do I need...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

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,...
