NullReferenceException in ReadExistingAssembly

[GeertvanHorrik]

In this code:

public static Assembly ReadExistingAssembly(AssemblyName name)
{
    var currentDomain = AppDomain.CurrentDomain;
    var assemblies = currentDomain.GetAssemblies();
    foreach (var assembly in assemblies)
    {
        var currentName = assembly.GetName();
        if (currentName.Name == name.Name && currentName.CultureInfo.Name == name.CultureInfo.Name)
        {
            return assembly;
        }
    }
    return null;
}

It is possible that name.CultureInfo == null. A fix is pretty easy:

if (string.Equals(currentName.Name, name.Name)
{
    if (name.CultureInfo == null || string.Equals(currentName.CultureInfo.Name, name.CultureInfo.Name))
    {
        return assembly;
    }
}

And since name.CultureInfo can be null, it might be wise to also check currentName.CultureInfo for null as well.

I ran into when trying to include the 'EntityFramework.SqlServerCompact' assembly.

Temporary fix was to exclude the assembly. But would be nice if the null check can be added.

Fixed in 1.0.
