Hey guys, I need the "Encoding" class from "microlib" but the second "Encoding" is default to use. What should I do?

    hi @JiaxiangWang

    Not sure I fully understand, but assuming you are trying to use 2 different versions of the same assembly:
    Use the the Full Assembly Qualified Type Name to instantiate the Type you need.

    A fully qualified Type name looks like this:

    "WackyCars.ViewModels.CarsViewModel, WackyCars, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null"

    Use it something like this:

                       Type oType = Type.GetType(AssemblyQualifiedTypeName.Trim());
                   if (oType != null)
                   {
                       //Got Type so create instance
                       object asmObj = Activator.CreateInstance(oType, TypeConstructorArgs);

                       if (asmObj != null)
                       {
                           //use the object
                        }
                     }

    Hope this points you in the right direction,
