DLL lazy loading

Question

I have complex .NET class library is dependent on several other .NET class libraries, but not all of them are used in every situation. Is there any way to mark them as 'Lazy loading', so I can delete it from folder if I know it is not used at all?

Answer 1

All assemblies are always loaded on demand. If you remove an assembly from a folder, the application will work until the point where it needs to load that assembly.
