The responses I’ve got to this question have solved the problem I had in that question, but I’m wondering whether it’s possible to extend it a bit. For example, if I were to have third parties contributing commands to this system, would there be a way of extending the first answer to my previous question to allow it to load all the commands from all the DLLs in a folder, and then list them in the list box.

Is that possible? Would it be able to work with a List of ICommand (as the answer to my previous question suggested).

  1. Yes.

     Assembly commandAssembly = Assembly.Load('some/path')  var commands = new List<ICommand>();   foreach (Type type in commandAssembly.GetTypes())  {     if (type.GetInterface(typeof(ICommand).FullName) != null)     {        commands.Add((ICommand)Activator.CreateInstance(type));     }  }

    However, you will probably run into some restrictions regarding assembly loading. You cannot just load assemblies from anywhere, otherwise you could reimplement something like COM DLL hell.
