Can I use Activator.CreateInstance with an Interface?

Question

I have an example:

        Assembly asm = Assembly.Load(\"ClassLibrary1\");
        Type ob = asm.GetType(\"ClassLibrary1.UserControl1\");
        UserContro         


        

Answer 1

The only problem with the accepted answer is that you must have a concrete class on your assembly that implements the interface.

To avoid that I have created my CustomActivator that is able to create a dynamic object at runtime and make it implements the desired interface.

I put it on the github: https://github.com/fabriciorissetto/CustomActivator

The call is simple:

CustomActivator.CreateInstance();
