Need fully qualified type name
assembly-name, c#, wpf
Solution
Try `Driver.Data.Module.DriverDataModule, Driver.Data.Module`.
You can also find the full assembly-qualified name of your type by instantiating an object of that type and examining the AssemblyQualifiedName property of its Type:
DriverDataModule module = new DriverDataModule();
string fullyQualifiedName = module.GetType().AssemblyQualifiedName;
Problem
I need to resolve an assembly and type at runtime and I need to find the fully qualified type name. For some reason I cannot get it right, as I keep get an exception saying it cannot find the type specified. The app.config file, in which the assembly to look for is defined, looks like this: ``` <configSections> <section name="modules" type="Microsoft.Practices.Composite.Modularity.ModulesConfigurationSection, Microsoft.Practices.Composite"/> </configSections> <modules> <module assemblyFile="G:\Data\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\Race Management System.Shell\ConfigurationModularity\bin\Debug\Modules\Driver.Data.Module.dll" moduleType="Driver.Data.Module.DriverDataModule, DriverDataModule" moduleName="Driver.Data.Module.DriverDataModule"></module> </modules> ``` The assembly is called: Driver.Data.Module Namespace in assembly is: Driver.Data.Module and type name is: DriverDataModule, and this is also the name of the .cs file. I cannot seem to find how to specify the name correctly in the xml file. Can somebody help me with the fully qualified type name? This is for a Composite WPF application. Thanx!
