Language: C#

Severity: Notice

Category: Error Prone

Description

This rule is intended to catch when Assembly.LoadFrom, Assembly.LoadFile, or Assembly.LoadWithPartialName  are used. DataDog recommends using Assembly.Load which will include the full specification of the DLL that needs to be loaded. The other methods might end up with another one that could lead to unexpected behavior.

Non-Compliant Code Examples

    Assembly.LoadFrom("");
    Assembly.LoadFile("");
