Viewing Assemblies with the BizTalk Assembly Viewer

  • Article

When you are developing applications or deploying assemblies, you need to see which assemblies are deployed and available to you. Microsoft BizTalk Server provides a convenient tool for this purpose - BizTalk Assembly Viewer.

The BizTalk Assembly Viewer is a Windows shell extension for examining deployed BizTalk assemblies and assembly types. BizTalk Assembly Viewer enables you to:

  • View a list of all BizTalk Server assemblies installed in the global assembly cache (GAC) on your local computer.

  • View the types within a BizTalk Server assembly.

  • View attributes of a BizTalk Server assembly, such as name, version, culture, code base, and public key token.

  • View referenced assemblies for a BizTalk Server assembly.

  • Add assemblies in the GAC.

  • Remove assemblies from the GAC.

  • View the XML code for various types including schemas, maps, orchestrations, and pipelines.

  • Search for particular types across all BizTalk Server assemblies deployed on a given server.

  • Search type dependencies across BizTalk Server assemblies.
