We are using MEF2 RegistrationBuilder.ForTypesMatching for exporting the types from the class library. I have attached the sample code below. This is working fine before updating the system with the Microsoft update KB2840642v2. But is not exporting
any parts after updated the system with the update KB2840642v2. One thing we noticed is that it is not working when I put this code in Global.asax.cs. But the code is working fine on a console application. The same issue is there on .net 4.5
and .net 4.5.1. Tested the same result on Visual Studio 2012 and Visual Studio 2013.
Looking for a fix or workaround for this.
