I'm working towards an MCTS cert and I'm having to learn a bunch of stuff
that I doubt I'd stumble across on my own. One such feature of .NET is
AppDomains; programatically creating new AppDomains and programmaticall y
loading/unloading assemblies in them.
Question:
What are some scenarios where I'd want to...
1 - programmaticall y create or destroy AppDomains
2 - load and unload assemblies in AppDomains?
Please note that I'm NOT asking *how* to do any of those things.
I'm wondering what sorts of "real world" programming problems I could solve
by doing those things. Is it primarily to conserve system resources
throughout the session of an application (i.e., load/unload on an as-needed
basis)?
Thanks!

There are one very well known app that has that
capability: ASP.NET engine.
You will also need it if you need to create a server app that are
capable of loading and unloading plugins dynamicly.
The need to unload is usually not to save resources, but to be
able to load a new version of the same stuff.

Yah yah yah, I was just hoping Pamela Anderson (no, strike that- Danica

I "get" your point - google would be the go-to choice if I were needing to
know "what" an AppDomain is and how to programmaticall y create one and load
assemblies into it...
But my OP was specifically about some scenarios in which I'd actually want
to do such things. Perhaps I should have been a bit more specific... I've
been programming for over 14 years (granted it's all been in dBase III) and
I haven't yet come across a need to dynamically load or unload libraries.
Being that I'm quite aware that I don't know everything, I figured I'd ask
some of you who may have come across a "real world" need to do these things.

You're quite the joke-ster. But if you're looking for the woman above to be

Now, that I see what you're talking about, then according to what I just
read, because I got 70-536 book too, but I have been procrastinating about
getting there, I can see use for Appdomain.

I try to get in the ballpark first as to why, and then I'll come up with my
own needs as to why I would use it. But I got to recognize why I would need
it first. http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/Ap...mprovement.asp
You venture to guess how I got that link?
I was simply wondering what are some real-world applications of this .NET
feature. Thus the OP... me trying to find out what some other
professionals are _actually_ using these features for.
I have been programming professionally, since 1980, and I have been
programming on the Windows platform since 1996. You may not find the real
world situation. The real world situation will be, when it comes to your
mind that you can use it, because you knew it existed.
It's been on some occasions that I have not seen a usage of feature that I
came across in a real world situation. However, I have been is some *real
world* situation that I knew that I could now implement that something that
I never saw a real usage for it.
It is what it is.

We are developing an application which will be deployed onto a Terminal

We have a static object (which as you well know is only static per
AppDomain), -I think I've just figured out the answer to my question, but
perhaps some confirmation wouldn't go amiss-

Our application environment consists of three basic layers:
1. Third-party unmanaged DLLs that were written before the CLR was invented
and maintain a significant amount of information (including memory
management and connection pooling constructs) as static variables which were
intended to scoped to the process.
2. Managed C++ assemblies (.NET 1.1) that wrap the unmanaged DLLs as nice
neat classes with managed interfaces.
