Get dependent assemblies?

Question

Is there a way to get all assemblies that depend on a given assembly?

Pseudo:

Assembly a = GetAssembly();
var dependants = a.GetDependants();
         


        

Answer 1

I'm not aware of any built-in possibility to get dependencies at runtime. So I think the easiest solution is define an extension method and use code from this application. I used an application itself a years ago. But do not use code of it.

Hope this helps.
