http://blogs.msdn.com/hanuk/archive/2008/05/19/silverlight-for-the-enterprises-where-are-my-dlls.aspxI recently spoke to a customer who wanted to know if Silverlight extracts the dlls (from the XAP) and stores them in the temp directories before building the type system in memory. The reason for the question was that they have a monitoring system thaten-USCommunityServer 2.1 SP1 (Build: 61025.2)http://blogs.msdn.com/hanuk/archive/2008/05/19/silverlight-for-the-enterprises-where-are-my-dlls.aspx#8520000Tue, 20 May 2008 02:27:52 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:8520000Discount Airline Tickets &raquo; Silverlight for the Enterprises - where are my dlls?<p>PingBack from <a rel="nofollow" target="_new" href="http://www.travel-hilarity.com/travel-airline-tickets/?p=1270">http://www.travel-hilarity.com/travel-airline-tickets/?p=1270</a></p> http://blogs.msdn.com/hanuk/archive/2008/05/19/silverlight-for-the-enterprises-where-are-my-dlls.aspx#8523920Tue, 20 May 2008 20:13:09 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:8523920Jeff Handley<p>With Silverlight using the browser cache, the DLLs could be left on disk within the temporary internet files folder, correct?</p> http://blogs.msdn.com/hanuk/archive/2008/05/19/silverlight-for-the-enterprises-where-are-my-dlls.aspx#8524103Tue, 20 May 2008 20:56:59 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:8524103hanuk<p>You will only see .XAP file on the file system (browser cache). At run time the DLLs will be streamed into memmory and go away once you close the browser. As of beta1, they won't leave any footprint on disk. &nbsp; </p> http://blogs.msdn.com/hanuk/archive/2008/05/19/silverlight-for-the-enterprises-where-are-my-dlls.aspx#8547328Sat, 24 May 2008 17:31:16 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:8547328Eloff<p>Unless you load the .dlls dynamically, i.e. separately from the .xap. Then I imagine that they will be in the cache.</p> http://blogs.msdn.com/hanuk/archive/2008/05/19/silverlight-for-the-enterprises-where-are-my-dlls.aspx#8584276Mon, 09 Jun 2008 10:58:48 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:8584276unknown<p>How can I load .dlls dynamically.</p> http://blogs.msdn.com/hanuk/archive/2008/05/19/silverlight-for-the-enterprises-where-are-my-dlls.aspx#8594989Fri, 13 Jun 2008 23:58:58 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:8594989hanuk<p>You can't load a random .NET dll. If they DLL had been compiled to Silverlight runtime, it will have to be included into the XAP package. Once it is in the package, you can stream the dll into Silvelright applicaiton and use reflection to instantiate the types. See my other post on &quot;Application Partitioning&quot; for this technique.</p> http://blogs.msdn.com/hanuk/archive/2008/05/19/silverlight-for-the-enterprises-where-are-my-dlls.aspx#8667551Sun, 29 Jun 2008 18:21:59 GMT91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:8667551Thomas Holloway<p>Actually, you can load just about any random DLL.

If that were true then a dll could be reused across several applications, which could reduce some overhead.</p>
