AssemblyPart Class

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

An assembly part is an assembly that is to be included in a Silverlight-based application package (.xap).

XAML Values

assembly
The Uri that identifies an assembly as an assembly part.
xamlName
The assembly part name. Mandatory for the application assembly. Optional for library assemblies.

The AssemblyPart type exposes the following members.

Constructors

	Name	Description
	AssemblyPart	Initializes a new instance of the AssemblyPart class.

Properties

	Name	Description
	Dispatcher	Gets the Dispatcher this object is associated with. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
	Source	Gets the Uri that identifies an assembly as an assembly part.

Methods

	Name	Description
	CheckAccess	Determines whether the calling thread has access to this object. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
	ClearValue	Clears the local value of a dependency property. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	Finalize	Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetAnimationBaseValue	Returns any base value established for a Silverlight dependency property, which would apply in cases where an animation is not active. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetValue	Returns the current effective value of a dependency property from a DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
	Load	Converts a Stream to an Assembly that is subsequently loaded into the current application domain.
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ReadLocalValue	Returns the local value of a dependency property, if a local value is set. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
	SetValue	Sets the local value of a dependency property on a DependencyObject. (Inherited from DependencyObject.)
	ToString	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.)

Fields

Remarks

A Silverlight-based application must have an application package with at least one assembly that implements the application entry point. This assembly is known as the application assembly. For more information, see the EntryPointAssembly property. Additional library assemblies can also be included in the application package.

An assembly that is included in the application package is known as an assembly part and must be identified as one by using AssemblyPart in the application manifest.

When you build your application by using either MSBuild or Visual Studio, the application manifest is generated for you and includes all the appropriate assembly part declarations. There is one assembly part declaration for the application assembly, which is identified by using the optional x:Name XAML markup extension. There is also one assembly part declaration for each library assembly that is referenced from the application assembly project.

The markup for application manifests is technically XAML. However the various elements for manifests are not included in the typical default Silverlight XML namespace (https://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation). Instead, the manifest elements are mapped to the https://schemas.microsoft.com/client/2007/deployment XML namespace. Generally, you do not have to change the XAML in an application manifest if the project specifies that each build should generate the application manifest.

The AssemblyPart class also represents assemblies that you load on demand through the Load method. For more information, see the Example section.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use this class in managed code.

Imports SilverlightLibrary

Partial Public Class HomePage
    Inherits UserControl

    Public Sub New()
        InitializeComponent()
    End Sub

    Private Sub TextBlock_MouseLeftButtonUp(ByVal sender As Object, _
        ByVal e As MouseButtonEventArgs)

        ' Download an "on-demand" assembly. 
        Dim wc As New WebClient()
        AddHandler wc.OpenReadCompleted, AddressOf wc_OpenReadCompleted
        wc.OpenReadAsync(New Uri("SilverlightLibrary.dll", UriKind.Relative))

    End Sub

    Private Sub wc_OpenReadCompleted(ByVal sender As Object, _
        ByVal e As OpenReadCompletedEventArgs)

        If (e.[Error] Is Nothing) AndAlso (e.Cancelled = False) Then

            ' Convert the downloaded stream into an assembly that is 
            ' loaded into current AppDomain. 
            Dim assemblyPart As New AssemblyPart()
            assemblyPart.Load(e.Result)

            DisplayPageFromLibraryAssembly()

        End If

    End Sub

    Private Sub DisplayPageFromLibraryAssembly()

        ' Create an instance of the Page class in the library assembly. 
        Dim page As New Page()

        ' Display the new Page. 
        Me.stackPanel.Children.Add(page)

    End Sub

End Class

using System; // Uri
using System.Net; // WebClient,OpenReadCompletedEventHandler
using System.Windows; // AssemblyPart
using System.Windows.Controls; // UserControl
using System.Windows.Input; // MouseButtonEventArgs
using SilverlightLibrary; // Page

namespace SilverlightApplication
{
    public partial class HomePage : UserControl
    {
        public HomePage()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void TextBlock_MouseLeftButtonUp(
            object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e)
        {
            // Download an "on-demand" assembly.
            WebClient wc = new WebClient();
            wc.OpenReadCompleted += 
                new OpenReadCompletedEventHandler(wc_OpenReadCompleted);
            wc.OpenReadAsync(
                new Uri("SilverlightLibrary.dll", UriKind.Relative));
        }

        private void wc_OpenReadCompleted(
            object sender, OpenReadCompletedEventArgs e)
        {
            if ((e.Error == null) && (e.Cancelled == false))
            {
                // Convert the downloaded stream into an assembly that is
                // loaded into current AppDomain.
                AssemblyPart assemblyPart = new AssemblyPart();
                assemblyPart.Load(e.Result);

                DisplayPageFromLibraryAssembly();
            }
        }

        private void DisplayPageFromLibraryAssembly() {

            // Create an instance of the Page class in the library assembly.
            Page page = new Page();

            // Display the new Page. 
            this.stackPanel.Children.Add(page);
        }
    }
}
