Re: [Ikvm-developers] DLL fixup problem (System.Security)

[Michael K. <mi...@sa...>]

A progress report on this: I've got it working by doing
Assembly.Load("saxon8sa.dll") before doing the dynamic load on the Java
class; the Java class will then be found within the loaded assembly.

Which in fact the program that was consistently working was already doing. 

The only problem now is that this only works if the entry point to the
user's application is in the same directory as the Saxon DLLs. Getting it to
work more flexibly, I know, is not an IKVM issue, it just means I need to
understand .NET dynamic loading rather better than I do at the moment. I
know I need to supply some kind of full assembly name so the code will be
found in the GAC: I just need to work out the details of how to do that.
