Embedding canopy fails in configuration.fs #442

Open TheGoddessInari opened 6 years ago

TheGoddessInari commented 6 years ago

If you embed canopy into the resulting assembly (such as with Fody.Costura), it fails on line 7 of configuration.fs, when it takes the reference assembly location.

This fairly well violates the principle of least surprise, as you'd expect canopy to be embeddable and only need two executables (the application executable and the webdriver).

Fails in what way? Fails to embed?

At runtime. It raises an exception when embedded.

It looks like the location of the assembly is lost because it is embedded.
