created 16 years ago

If location of .config file passed to DBUpdater contains any exe which is not .NET then DBUpdater tries to open it and fails.
XafApplication application = dmf.FindApplicationByConfigFile(configFileName, ref assembliesPath);
I did a temporary fix to modify DBUpdater source for my application
Steps to Reproduce:
put any .exe file which is not .NET application into directory where .config.
run dbupdater with .config as argument
Actual Results:
throwz exception saying cannot open …exe
Expected Results:
DBUpdater should only tries to load the .config for mentioned .exe i,e if I pass sample.exe.config , then should try to load sample.exe.
this is applicable for Windows Forms application only.
