It sounds like you're talking about something similar to AppDomain (Setup).SetShadowCopyFiles (now ShadowCopyDirectories on 2.0). Maybe you can use some of it.

I knew that default appdomain can not unload the targeting assembly dll , the only way I can do is to develop a solution based on creating a new appdomain,loading assemblies from configured file ,using filesystemwatch to monitor this configured xml file and doing the remoting stuff. Because I am not fammliar with remoting and appdomain manipulation at that time, I skip the step to create a new appdomain ,I use the following steps in the default appdomain.(loading assemblies from xml file and using filesystemwatch to monitor configured file, once configured file changed, I reload the targeting aeembly dll(with different assmbly dll name,different class name but implement same interface, it's a plugin framework) I am still searching a new solution for this, I don't want to rename assembly dll and class name, so I am think SOA, but it has a performance issue. I am thinking scripting, so I check ironpython solution, I want to rewrite some stuff in python and execute it from pythonhost engine. I am at the process to find a better solution for this subject. Have you here ever faced the same problem that you can not stop your host program while bug fixed or something changed? Could you share your experience?
