New Post: Why is System.Web.Extensions.dll loaded when I call FirstOrDefault?

ok, I see now how the System.Web.dll gets loaded. It is done by the Firebird .Net Provider while opening a Connection in the method FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient.ni.dll!FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient.FbConnectionInternal.GetHostingPath()




Hee is the code of the function:

private string GetHostingPath()
{
      System.Reflection.Assembly assembly;
      try
      {
                 assembly = System.Reflection.Assembly.Load(string.Format("System.Web, Version={0}.{1}.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a", Environment.Version.Major, Environment.Version.Minor));
      }
      catch (FileNotFoundException)
      {
                return null;
      }
      catch (FileLoadException)
      {
             return null;
      }
      catch (BadImageFormatException)
      {
            return null;
      }
      return (string)assembly.GetType("System.Web.Hosting.HostingEnvironment")
                .GetProperty("ApplicationPhysicalPath")
                .GetValue(null, null);
}

And the Extension DLL gets loaded 1s later. So does this mean when the Web.dll gets laoded the Web.Extension also get loaded everytime?
