GetEntryAssembly vs GetExecutingAssembly about csharpanalytics

Hi Frederico.

Are you seeing the error in MeasurementConfiguration or in the AppDataContractSerializer? These are both parts of the AutoMeasurement class which is designed to be as hands-off as possible but are quite prescriptive. They use GetExecutingAssembly to:

a. Identify the app version number automatically in MeasurementConfiguration
b. Identify the app company automatically in AppDataContractSerializer so it knows where to store state

Given you are calling this from a com-visible DLL I suspect AutoMeasurement is not a good match but the good news is that all the building blocks AutoMeasurement uses are also available to you and it shouldn't take much effort to configure them in a way that works best for your scenario.

You'll need to create a new version of AppDataContractSerializer that is specifically told where to save configuration but everything else should be reusable.

Hi Damien,

The error is in AppDataContractSerializer. I've change it to use GetExecutingAssembly and it's working fine so far. Would you like a PR testing the "nullability" of the GetEntryAssembly and using GetExecutingAssembly in this cases?

Thank you :)
