member FindAssembly :
assemblyName : string -> AssemblyDetails Parameters
- assemblyName String
- The assembly name without a path or extension or a strong name value. If a strong name value is specified, a "starts with" comparison on the description is used to see if the assembly is present in the framework. This allows for matches on strong names with processor architecture specified which we don't have. If only a name is given, just the name is compared. Comparisons are case-insensitive.
Return Value
