Getting Control in Main Window

I have a win app that as a ListBox control.

In the app, I load an Assembly through reflection. I would like that assembly to somehow have access to the ListBox in the main application. I DO NOT want to add the main app as a reference to the assembly.

How do i accomplish this?

Thanks,
Joshua

You can pass your control as a property or as a constructor parameterto the assembly.(Does assembly's codecan be modified by you?)

Since your control is reference typeyou can access your control via that property or variable.

Yeah, that's what i'm doing right now. I didn't know if there was a "cleaner" way to do it.
