在SharePoint 2010中以编程方式创建.NET程序集连接器

Question

Does anybody know how to create a .NET assembly connector programmatically? I mean I want to generate an .NET assembly in runtime using Reflection.Emit and deploy it to SharePoint.

I've found this great post:

where a database external type is created, but I need to create an external type based on a .NET assembly

Thanks

This is not really an answer to your question, but just an observation/suggestion. In order to deploy an assembly that SharePoint will use you have to get it in the GAC. I would think if you created some code to Emit the assembly then had either your current app or another app create a PowerShell script to add the assembly to the GAC and wire up all the SharePoint STSADM stuff, then you could accomplish what you want. I may have better ideas with more details of where you are generating the new assembly (from some external app, etc). Hope this helps or at least sparks some ideas.
