IHostAssemblyManager::GetAssemblyStore Method

Gets an interface pointer to an IHostAssemblyStore Interface that represents the list of assemblies loaded by the host.

HRESULT GetAssemblyStore (
    [out] IHostAssemblyStore **ppAssemblyStore
);

Parameters

  • ppAssemblyStore
    [out] A function pointer to an IHostAssemblyStore instance, or null, if the host does not implement IHostAssemblyStore.

Return Value

HRESULT Description

S_OK

GetAssemblyStore returned successfully.

HOST_E_CLRNOTAVAILABLE

The common language runtime (CLR) has not been loaded into a process, or the CLR is in a state in which it cannot run managed code or process the call successfully.

HOST_E_TIMEOUT

The call timed out.

HOST_E_NOT_OWNER

The caller does not own the lock.

HOST_E_ABANDONED

An event was canceled while a blocked thread or fiber was waiting on it.

E_FAIL

An unknown catastrophic failure occurred. When a method returns E_FAIL, the CLR is no longer usable within the process. Subsequent calls to hosting methods return HOST_E_CLRNOTAVAILABLE.

E_NOINTERFACE

The host does not provide an implementation of IHostAssemblyStore.

Remarks

IHostAssemblyStore provides methods that allow a host to bind to assemblies and modules independently of the CLR. Hosts typically provide assembly stores to allow assemblies to be loaded from formats other than the file system.

Note

If the host does not implement IHostAssemblyStore, GetAssemblyStore should return an HRESULT value of E_NOINTERFACE, and should set ppAssemblyStore to null.
