AssemblyDependencyResolver Class

Definition

Namespace:

System.Runtime.Loader

Assembly:

System.Runtime.Loader.dll

Source:

AssemblyDependencyResolver.cs

Allows a program to resolve assemblies and native libraries to paths based on the dependencies of a given assembly.

C#

[System.Runtime.Versioning.UnsupportedOSPlatform("android")]
[System.Runtime.Versioning.UnsupportedOSPlatform("browser")]
[System.Runtime.Versioning.UnsupportedOSPlatform("ios")]

Remarks

The AssemblyDependencyResolver class enables application developers to more easily develop a plugin architecture in conjunction with custom System.Runtime.Loader.AssemblyLoadContext instances to isolate plugins and also enable plugins to load dependencies.

The tutorial on creating a .NET Core application with plugins describes how to create a custom AssemblyLoadContext that uses an AssemblyDependencyResolver to resolve the dependencies of the plugin and correctly isolate the plugin's dependencies from the hosting application.

Constructors

AssemblyDependencyResolver(String)

Initializes a new instance of the AssemblyDependencyResolver class with a path to a component's assembly.
