Assembly Class

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

Represents an assembly, which is a reusable, versionable, and self-describing building block of a common language runtime application.

The Assembly type exposes the following members.

Properties

	Name	Description
	CodeBase	Gets the location of the assembly as specified originally, for example, in an AssemblyName object.
	EntryPoint	Gets the entry point of this assembly.
	FullName	Gets the display name of the assembly.
	ImageRuntimeVersion	Gets a string representing the version of the common language runtime (CLR) saved in the file containing the manifest.
	IsDynamic	Gets a value that indicates whether the current assembly was generated dynamically in the current process by using reflection emit.
	Location	Gets the path or UNC location of the loaded file that contains the manifest.
	ManifestModule	Gets the module that contains the manifest for the current assembly.

Methods

	Name	Description
	CreateInstance	Locates the specified type from this assembly and creates an instance of it using the system activator, using case-sensitive search.
	Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) In Silverlight for Windows Phone, this member is overridden by Equals(Object). In XNA Framework, this member is overridden by Equals(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.)
	GetCallingAssembly	Returns the Assembly of the method that invoked the currently executing method.
	GetCustomAttributes(Boolean)	Gets all the custom attributes for this assembly.
	GetCustomAttributes(Type, Boolean)	Gets the custom attributes for this assembly as specified by type.
	GetExecutingAssembly	Gets the assembly that contains the code that is currently executing.
	GetExportedTypes	Gets the types defined in this assembly that are visible outside the assembly.
	GetFile	Security Critical. Gets a FileStream for the specified file in the file table of the manifest of this assembly.
	GetFiles	Security Critical. Gets the files in the file table of an assembly manifest, specifying whether to include resource modules.
	GetHashCode	Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) In Silverlight for Windows Phone, this member is overridden by GetHashCode(). In XNA Framework, this member is overridden by GetHashCode().
	GetManifestResourceNames	Returns the names of all the resources in this assembly.
	GetManifestResourceStream(String)	Loads the specified manifest resource from this assembly.
	GetManifestResourceStream(Type, String)	Loads the specified manifest resource, scoped by the namespace of the specified type, from this assembly.
	GetModules	Gets all the modules that are part of this assembly.
	GetName()	Security Critical. Gets an AssemblyName for this assembly.
	GetName(Boolean)	Security Critical. Gets an AssemblyName for this assembly, setting the codebase as specified by copiedName.
	GetSatelliteAssembly(CultureInfo)	Gets the satellite assembly for the specified culture.
	GetSatelliteAssembly(CultureInfo, Version)	Gets the specified version of the satellite assembly for the specified culture.
	GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.)
	GetType(String)	Gets the Type object with the specified name in the assembly instance.
	GetType(String, Boolean)	Gets the Type object with the specified name in the assembly instance and optionally throws an exception if the type is not found.
	GetTypes	Gets the types defined in this assembly.
	IsDefined	Indicates whether or not a specified attribute has been applied to the assembly.
	Load(AssemblyName)	Security Critical. Loads an assembly given its AssemblyName.
	Load(String)	Loads an assembly given the long form of its name.
	LoadFrom	Security Critical. Loads an assembly given its file name or path.
	MemberwiseClone	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.)
	ToString	Returns the full name of the assembly, also known as the display name. (Overrides Object.ToString().)

Remarks

Use the Assembly class to load assemblies, to explore the metadata and constituent parts of assemblies, to discover the types contained in assemblies, and to create instances of those types.

To load assemblies dynamically, the Assembly class provides the static Load(String) method overload (Shared method overload in Visual Basic). Assemblies are loaded into the Silverlight application domain. Other overloads can be called only by the trusted assemblies in the .NET Framework.

To get an Assembly object for the currently executing assembly, use the GetExecutingAssembly method.

Many members of the Assembly class provide information about an assembly. For example:

The GetName method returns an AssemblyName object that provides access to the parts of the assembly display name.
The GetCustomAttributes method lists the attributes applied to the assembly.
The GetFiles method provides access to the files in the assembly manifest.
The GetManifestResourceNames method provides the names of the resources in the assembly manifest.

The GetTypes method lists all the types in the assembly. The GetExportedTypes method lists the types that are visible to callers outside the assembly. The GetType method can be used to search for a particular type in the assembly. The CreateInstance method can be used to search for and create instances of types in the assembly.

Examples

The following code example shows how to obtain the currently executing assembly, create an instance of a type contained in that assembly, and invoke one of the type's methods with late binding. For this purpose, the code example defines a class named Example, with a method named SampleMethod. The constructor of the class accepts an integer, which is used to compute the return value of the method.

The code example also demonstrates the use of the GetName method to obtain an AssemblyName object that can be used to parse the full name of the assembly. The example displays the version number of the assembly and the EntryPoint property.

Public Class Example
   Private Shared outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock
   Private factor As Integer

   Public Sub New()
      Me.New(42)
   End Sub
   Public Sub New(ByVal f As Integer)
      factor = f
   End Sub

   Public Function SampleMethod(ByVal x As Integer) As Integer
      outputBlock.Text &= String.Format(vbCrLf & "Example.SampleMethod({0}) executes.", x) & vbCrLf
      Return x * factor
   End Function

   Public Shared Sub Demo(ByVal outputBlock As System.Windows.Controls.TextBlock)

      Example.outputBlock = outputBlock
      Dim assem As [Assembly] = [Assembly].GetExecutingAssembly()

      outputBlock.Text &= "Assembly Full Name:" & vbCrLf
      outputBlock.Text &= assem.FullName & vbCrLf

      ' Create an object from the assembly, using the default constructor.
      Dim o As Object = assem.CreateInstance("SilverlightApplication.Example")

      ' Make a late-bound call to an instance method of the object.  
      Dim m As MethodInfo = o.GetType().GetMethod("SampleMethod")
      Dim ret As Object = m.Invoke(o, New Object() {42})
      outputBlock.Text &= String.Format("SampleMethod returned {0}.", ret) & vbCrLf

      outputBlock.Text &= vbCrLf & "Assembly entry point:" & vbCrLf
      Dim entry As MethodInfo = assem.EntryPoint
      If entry Is Nothing Then
         outputBlock.Text &= "No entry point defined for the assembly." & vbCrLf
      Else
         outputBlock.Text &= entry.ToString() & vbCrLf
      End If
   End Sub
