System.Security.SecurityException: That assembly does not allow partially trusted callers

I was writing a Windows Azure ASP.NET MVC application and when making a call to a page I received the following exception:

System.Security.SecurityException: That assembly does not allow partially trusted callers

In my application I’m using Castle Windsor for dependency injection and when trying to resolve a service using:

}

IGravatar gravatar = MvcApplication.Container.Resolve();

I received this message. To solve things I needed to update the WebRole element in the ServiceDefinitions.csdef file so that enableNativeCodeExecution is enabled.

I found the solution, detailed above, on the Azure Services Platform Developer Centre forum.

Windows Azure – 503 Service Unavailable

Once you know it you’ll probably never forget it…but wait, this is the second time I’ve googled for this. I’d best post how you “get the Windows temporary directory using C#“!

string tempPath =
    System.IO.Path.GetTempPath();
