RE: Class.FromType ignores assembly information

Hello Greg,
This is a bug in VJ# and will be fixed in next release if any. Thanks for
reporting it.
At this point no workaround is known.

Thanks,

If I execute the following code -

Assembly a1 = Assembly.LoadFrom("c:\\classLoader\\test\\classx.d ll");
Type type1 = a1.GetType("temp.Classx");
Class cl1 = Class.FromType(type1);
Assembly a2 = Assembly.LoadFrom("c:\\classLoader\\test\\testx.dl l");
Type type2 = a2.GetType("temp.Classx");
Class cl2 = Class.FromType(type2);

I would expect that cl2 is the temp.Classx in assembly a2. However, if I
inspect the __corType.Assembly for cl2, it references assembly a1, even
though type2 correctly references assembly a2.

It appears that Class.FromType looks for the first loaded class with the
matching type, regardless of the assembly reference in the Type class
being
passed as an argument.

Is there an alternative (that works) approach to accessing the correct
Class?
