Kris --

Please help.

This is a follow-up regarding this thread...

http://forum.huagati.com/messages.aspx?TopicID=5

...and, in particular, this link in that thread...

http://www.huagati.com/ProjectLoader/download/HuagatiProjectLoader.zip

...and I was wondering...

(1). What is the standard location for the download of the ProjectLoader? Is there a link to a downloads somewhere on www.Huagati.com or elsewhere? Is it just that link that is noted above, as found in the thread? Something else?

(2). What is the best source for information regarding the ProjectLoader? Is there a link to a page that describes it somewhere on www.Huagati.com or elsewhere? Is there any documentation on it? Something else?

(3). Have there been any updates? How can one tell if one has the latest-and-greatest version of the ProjectLoader?

I a trying to direct our development team to the download and the information regarding ProjectLoader-- so, that is why I am asking. Right now, all I have is that thread and that link to show, where I think there might be something more.

What do you suggest? What do you think?

Please advise.

Thank you.

Hi Mark,

There's not a whole lot of documentation for the project loader add-in. I used to have something about it in my old blog but besides that there's only what has been mentioned in the thread you linked to and a couple of threads in the MSDN forums.

It has not been updated for some time (March 2009), but the source code (with a bit of comments etc) is included within the download zip so it is easy to get an idea of what it does and of course modify it if needed.

In short, it will hook into the Visual Studio events for when solutions/projects are loaded, and will attempt to find out what assemblies are referenced by a project before the project is actually loaded. Next it will explicitly force those assemblies to load earlier than they would otherwise be loaded and will store the load order in a separate file. That file can be edited to change the load order, and on subsequent loads it will use that file to load assemblies in that same order for each project.

Best regards,
Kristofer
