https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=633473#c0 Summary: Type.GetType() can't load assemblies containing spaces Classification: Mono Product: Mono: Class Libraries Version: SVN Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: CORLIB AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [email protected] QAContact: [email protected] Found By: --- Blocker: --- Apologies if this is a dup, but I didn't see anything relevant. The program: using System; public class Test { public static void Main () { Console.WriteLine (typeof(Test).AssemblyQualifiedName); Console.WriteLine (Type.GetType (typeof(Test).AssemblyQualifiedName) != null); } } The compilation: $ gmcs "/out:a b.exe" file.cs The execution: $ mono "a b.exe" Test, a b, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null False The problem: Type.GetType() returns null (hence the second line of output being true). Expected behavior: Type.GetType() returns non-null, and True is printed on the second line. NET supports assembly names containing spaces, and will print out True for the above program. Further note: .NET also supports *leading* whitespace in the assembly name, e.g. `gmcs "/out: a b.exe" file.cs` to generate the assembly " a b.exe". When leading whitespace is present, the AssemblyQualifiedName contains embedded quotes: Test, " a b", Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
