Loading Assembly During Application_Start

[Jordan S.]

If I load an .NET assembly during the application start event, and I load it
into the current app domain (as opposed to creating a new app doman and
loading it there)... is it true that the assembly will remain loaded with
its members available globally (e.g., to all Page class instances) for the
lifetime of the ASP.NET application (i.e., until it recycles)?

Thanks!

yes, the assembly remains loaded for the life of the app domain as there
is no unload.
