Dynamically Loading Assemblies at Runtime

Vjekoslav Babić has already written a three-article series about "DLL hell" for Dynamics NAV developers and how to resolve it. In the previouw post in the series he provided some code to help you take control of your .NET assemblies.

This time, I am delivering an updated solution, one that solves all the problems others, and myself, have encountered in the meantime. So, fasten the seatbelt, and let's embark on another .NET interoperability black belt ride.

I know that at least a few of you have been impatient and asked for code and everything, so I've nicely put all this together and published it on GitHub: https://github.com/vjekob/NAV-Assembly-Resolver.

One of the things that there is the Assembly Resolver assembly code. Babić said many people have asked about the "dll" to put into the Add-ins folder.

You can take this C# solution, compile it and you get your assembly that you can put into the Add-ins folder for the development environment. You don't need it for the service tier (at least not if you are on 2016).

You can find out what's different from the first version here.
