How do I get the path of the assembly the code is in?

Question

Is there a way to get the path for the assembly in which the current code resides? I do not want the path of the calling assembly, just the one containing the code.

Answer 1

I use this to get the path to the Bin Directory:

var i = Environment.CurrentDirectory.LastIndexOf(@"\");
var path = Environment.CurrentDirectory.Substring(0,i); 

You get this result:

"c:\users\ricooley\documents\visual studio 2010\Projects\Windows_Test_Project\Windows_Test_Project\bin"
