8.16 Determining Current AppDomain Settings
Information
Problem
You want to know about the current settings for the AppDomain your code is execut-
ing in to help in debugging various issues with assembly loading, authorization
issues, and startup problems.
Solution
Examine the properties of the AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation class to
see the activation settings, the security information for the
AppDomain, associated file
paths like code base and configuration files, assembly binding and policy settings,
and load optimization and shadow copy settings. Get the
AppDomainSetup object with
the current
AppDomain settings information like this:
AppDomainSetup info = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetupInformation;
Now the ActivationArguments can be examined to find out things like the code base
and full name of the
AppDomain as well as the corresponding ActivationData and
ActivationContext information:
Console.WriteLine("Current AppDomain Properties:");
if (info.ActivationArguments != null)
{
