Dear All,
If I change an Enum or a Constant value in a dll and use this
changed dll in a already compiled application of mine then these
changed values are not reflected in the application's instance...
Is there a workaround for this? How can I else send a hot patch? What
are the similar issues related to this type of sending hot patches...

Please help...

TALIA

Many Regards
Jack

Indeed.

You shouldn't use const for values which aren't truly constants - use
static readonly values instead. For enums this seems a bit harsh, but
unfortunately it's the way it is.

You basically need to distribute the recompiled application as well as
the dll.
