Hi there!

I'm working on an addin that much like ReSharper TestRunner and
TestDriven.NET runs unit tests inside of Visual Studio.

The problem I'm having is that when I try to load the assemblies
containing the tests, I get an SecurityException with the message
"Request for the permission of type
'System.Security.Permissions.FileIOPermission, mscorlib,
Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089'
failed."

I've tried adding a FileIOPermssion Assert, but that doesn't work. Is
there something easy I can do to load assemblies while running inside
the DTE2 events?

Regards,

Andres Taylor

I forgot to write. I do this by doing a
AppDomain.CreateInstanceFromAndUnwrap(assembly, typeName)

Don't know if it matters.
