> ---------------------------

> Key: AVRO-1981
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-1981
> Project: Apache Avro
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: csharp
> Affects Versions: 1.8.2
> Reporter: Josh Steward
> Assignee: Brian Lachniet
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.9.0
>
>
> In the ObjectCreator the call to FindType(name, throwError) can throw a
> ReflectionTypeLoadException during the call to assembly.GetTypes() if any of
> the types are not able to load, MSDN link below for ref. This effectively
> kills the entire deserialization process. I put in a simple workaround to
> just continue if this happens. In my particular case it was trying to load
> types from a devexpress test runner dll.

> private Type FindType(string name,bool throwError)
> {
> //other code
> foreach (Assembly assembly in assemblies)
> {
> // Fix for Mono 3.0.10
> if (assembly.FullName.StartsWith("MonoDevelop.NUnit"))
> continue;
> /*Added catch in case assembly contains unloadable
> types*/
> try
> {
> types = assembly.GetTypes();
> }
> catch (ReflectionTypeLoadException ex)
> {
> continue;
