Details and Options

  • To use LoadNETAssembly, you first need to load .NET/Link using Needs["NETLink`"].
  • The assembly argument can be a simple name like System.Web, a full name like System.Web, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a, or a path or URL to the assembly file itself.
  • Multiple calls of LoadNETAssembly on an already loaded assembly will return quickly.
