> The third argument to AMQConnection.LoadTransportFromAssembly() is called "assemblyName", suggesting that it should contain a partially or fully qualified assembly name. 
> However, the argument value is actually used as an argument to Assembly.LoadFrom(), which doesn't take an assembly name but an assembly path instead. The two are at odds with each other.
> So, either the argument name is wrong (and it should be assemblyFilename instead) or the call to Assembly.LoadFrom() should be replaced with a call to Assembly.Load() instead. Which one is the correct fix will depend on what the original intentions of the code are and the expected usage.
> However, in general terms I'd recommend avoiding Assembly.LoadFrom() and use Assembly.Load() instead to allow the runtime to do proper assembly loading resolution (including loading from the GAC if necessary) and avoiding conflicts because of load contexts (Load() and LoadFrom() load assemblies in different binding contexts which affects how dependencies are resolved and loaded at runtime.
