Right, but beware that you have to do some post-processing
on the Codebase return value to get it to work as a
local path, especially if you want it to work on both
Linux and Windows. Here's what I use, in case it's helpful
to anyone:
public static string GetAssemblyPath(Assembly assembly)
{
string path = assembly.CodeBase;
Uri uri = new Uri(path);
// If it wasn't loaded locally, use the Location
if (!uri.IsFile)
return assembly.Location;
if (uri.IsUnc)
return path.Substring(Uri.UriSchemeFile.Length + 1);
int start = Uri.UriSchemeFile.Length +
Uri.SchemeDelimiter.Length;
if (path[start] == '/' && path[start + 2] == ':')
++start;
return path.Substring(start);
}
