How to call crossappdomaindelegate-Method with parameters

Question

i would like to call the method crossappdomaindelegate with a method-name which needs a parameter.

Example:

myAppdomain.DoCallback(new CrossAppDomainDelegate(MyMethod));

private static void MyMethod(string myParam)
{
  Console.Write("my param="+ myParam);
}

how can I pass a parameter in new CrossAppDomainDelegate(MyMethod....)?

Update: Just to complete Maarten's answer to my specific case: I had also add an ResolveHandler to find already loaded assemblies. Just if anyone else has similar Problems.

_myNewAppDomain.AssemblyResolve += MyResolveEventHandler;

        public static Assembly MyResolveEventHandler(Object sender, ResolveEventArgs args)
        {
            var dllName = args.Name.Split(',')[0];

            var currentAppdomain = (AppDomain) sender;

            var file = currentAppdomain.GetAssemblies().FirstOrDefault(f => f.FullName.Split(',')[0] == dllName);

            return file;
        }

Here is one way to retrieve the types in an assembly in another AppDomain.

First, define some dummy classes:

public class X1 { }
public class X2 { }
public class X3 { }
public class X4 { }
public class X5 { }

Then define a specific class to load the types from an assembly:

public class TypesProvider : MarshalByRefObject
{
    public string[] RetrieveTypes()
    {
        return Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetTypes().Select(x => x.FullName).ToArray();
    }

    public string[] RetrieveTypesForAnotherAssembly(string assemblyFile)
    {
        return Assembly.LoadFile(assemblyFile).GetTypes().Select(x => x.FullName).ToArray();
    }
}

And use that class to retrieve the types from an assembly:

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        var domain = AppDomain.CreateDomain("type-provider-appdomain");
        var typeProviderInstance = domain.CreateInstanceAndUnwrap(typeof(TypesProvider).Assembly.FullName, typeof(TypesProvider).FullName) as TypesProvider;
        if (typeProviderInstance != null)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Types for the executing assembly");
            var types = typeProviderInstance.RetrieveTypes();
            foreach (var type in types)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(type);
            }
            var assemblyFile = new FileInfo("EntityFramework.dll").FullName;
            Console.WriteLine("Types for assembly " + assemblyFile);
            types = typeProviderInstance.RetrieveTypesForAnotherAssembly(assemblyFile);
            foreach (var type in types)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(type);
            }
        }
        Console.ReadLine();
    }
}

The first usage of the TypesProvider will yield the dummy classes

Types for the executing assembly
SO_3543881.Program
SO_3543881.TypesProvider
SO_3543881.X1
SO_3543881.X2
SO_3543881.X3
SO_3543881.X4
SO_3543881.X5

The second call will yield all types from the EntityFramework assembly (if you have placed it in the bin folder).
