.NET Forum / .NET Framework / New Users / August 2005Detect Type with Reflection?
I have an instanced class that needs to, at Runtime using Reflection, check the current AppDomain for the existence of another Type, and if it exists create a new instance. If that Type is not in the AppDomain, then attempt to load it from disk. How can I do that (C#)? Thanks. >I have an instanced class that needs to, at Runtime using Reflection, >check the current AppDomain for the existence of another Type You can iterate through the assemblies returned by AppDomain.GetAssemblies and check for the one where teh type is implemented. >and if it exists create a new instance. When you find the right Assembly instance just call CreateInstance on it and pass in the type name. >If that Type is not in the AppDomain, >then attempt to load it from disk. With Assembly.Load/LoadFrom. You can always do this if you want (skip checking if it's already loaded) since the assembly will only loaded once anyway.
