This returns exactly the same string as the code I have been using, and the
GlobalAssemblyCache property returns also whether the assembly was loaded
from the gac or not.
The only thing I need is this string: 'c:\myAssembly.dll.config', whether
the assembly came from the gac or not, if possible retrieved from the
executing assembly (no extra load).
Thanks,
Michel.
