Type.GetType() does not look in all the loaded assemblies if the type
name is unqualified (see
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/w3f99sx1.aspx). Unqualified
type names are sought only in the currently executing assembly and
Mscorlib. That's why it is necessary to explicitly seek for unqualified
types in both the bin and the top-level assemblies. App_Code dll is
indeed loaded up by the time objectdatasourceview is used.

best,
