Examples

The following example demonstrates calling the FromGlobalAccessCache method. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the RuntimeEnvironment class.

// Show whether the EXE assembly was loaded from the GAC or from a
// private subdirectory.
Console::WriteLine("Did the {0} assembly load from the GAC? {1}",
    Assembly::GetExecutingAssembly(),
    RuntimeEnvironment::FromGlobalAccessCache(
    Assembly::GetExecutingAssembly()));

// Show whether the EXE assembly was loaded from the GAC or from a private subdirectory.
Assembly assem = typeof(App).Assembly;
Console.WriteLine("Did the {0} assembly load from the GAC? {1}",
   assem, RuntimeEnvironment.FromGlobalAccessCache(assem));

' Show whether the EXE assembly was loaded from the GAC or from a private subdirectory.
Dim assem As Assembly = GetType(App).Assembly
Console.WriteLine("Did the {0} assembly load from the GAC? {1}", 
                  assem, RuntimeEnvironment.FromGlobalAccessCache(assem))
