How to get current physical path of a reflected assembly

Question

I have an executable that loads another class library DLL using reflection. Within that class library, I want to find out what the physical path of the class library is. I don't want the executing assembly, as that is the original executable.

Eg the exe might be in c:\\program\\ and the class library might be c:\\libraries\\remote\\Assembly1.dll

Within a method inside Assembly1.dll I need to call something that returns me

c:\\libraries\\remote\\

I have tried

  var currentLocation = Assembly.GetAssembly(GetType()).Location;

But that doesn't seem to work. How can I do this?

Answer 1

我使用这种方法来获取当前类的汇编路径：

var dllPath = new Uri(this.GetType().Assembly.GetName().CodeBase).LocalPath;

Answer 2

Here's one way I do it. "assembly" is the loaded dll

assembly.Location.Replace(assembly.GetName().Name + ".dll", "")
