[C#] Convert from string to bytes !

[akshaycjoshi]

Why is the code not working ??

    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
 
            Version v = new Version("2.0.0.0");
            AssemblyName asmname = new AssemblyName();
            asmname.Name = "System.Windows.Forms";
            asmname.Version = v;
            asmname.CultureInfo = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("");
            asmname.SetPublicKeyToken(System.Text.Encoding.UTF32.GetBytes("b77a5c561934e089"));
 
            Assembly asm = Assembly.Load(asmname);
 
 
 
            foreach (Type t in asm.GetTypes())
            {
                Console.WriteLine("******  SHOWING DATA FOR " + t.FullName.ToUpper() + " ******\n");
                Program.ShowStatics(t);
                Program.ShowProperties(t);
                Program.ShowMethods(t);
                Program.ShowFields(t);
            }
 
 
            Console.ReadKey();
        }
 
        static void ShowStatics(Type t)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("IsAbstract? {0}",t.IsAbstract);
            Console.WriteLine("IsNested? {0}", t.IsNested);
            Console.WriteLine("FullName? {0}", t.FullName);
            Console.WriteLine("BaseType? {0}", t.BaseType);
 
        }
        static void ShowMethods(Type t)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("\n*********** METHODS ***********");
            MethodInfo[] methods = t.GetMethods();
            foreach (MemberInfo method in methods)
                Console.WriteLine(method.Name);
        }
 
        static void ShowProperties(Type t)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("\n*********** PROPERTIES ***********");
            PropertyInfo[] properties = t.GetProperties();
            foreach (PropertyInfo property in properties)
                Console.WriteLine(property.GetType() + " " + property.Name);
        }
 
        static void ShowFields(Type t)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("\n*********** FIELDS ***********");
            FieldInfo[] fields = t.GetFields();
            foreach (FieldInfo field in fields)
                Console.WriteLine(field.GetType() + " " + field.Name);
        }
    }

Throwing this exception.
Could not load file or assembly 'System.Windows.Forms, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=62373761356335363139333465303839' or one of its dependencies. The data area passed to a system call is too small. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007A)

The public key token is not converting properly.

The hexadecimal string "b77a5c561934e089" (="b7 7a 5c 56 19 34 e0 89") has to be converted to eight bytes. Encoding.GetBytes() converts characters to bytes so you'll get 16 bytes.

so how to solve this problem ?

[Plater]

How about:

byte[] bts = new byte[] 
{
    0xb7
    0x7a
    0x5c
    0x56
    0x19
    0x34
    0xe0
    0x89
}; 
 

Although I really don't understand what you are doing
