Evidence bug

[Tod Johnson]

Hello all,

not so long I've found really strange bug in the .NET. It seems that
Evidence that I've got from the current executing Assembly is somehow
expired (it happens suddenly after about month) and Xslt Transformation
stop working at all for the whole AppDomain until I restart it. Am I
using "this.GetType() .Assembly.Evide nce" incorrectly?

Here is the code snippet:

XslTransform xt = new XslTransform();
try
{
xt.Load(new XmlTextReader(s tream), null, this.GetType(). Assembly.Eviden ce);
}
catch(XsltCompi leException ex)
{
throw new WebReportsExcep tion(Utils.Exce ptionsToString( ex), ex);
}

And this is the stacktrace:

Exception: System.Security .Cryptography.C ryptographicExc eption
Message: The parameter is incorrect.

at System.Xml.Xsl. XslTransform.Lo ad(XPathNavigat or stylesheet,

XmlResolver resolver, Evidence evidence)

Thanks in advance,
Tod

And what if I pass Evidence that I've created using
CreateEvidenceF orUrl(@"my working directory")? What is the diference
between this evidence and evidence that I've retrieved from Assembly
(this.GetType() .Assembly.Evide nce)?

Thanks again!
