Description
Reposting from https://github.com/OData/WebApi/issues/2347. Not sure what is the most appropriate repo for this
Version 8.0 on .NET 5
Question: Is it possible to call "AddModel" at runtime (from my own service)?
The goal is to iterate over:
- dynamically load an assembly containing the models, dbcontext and the odata controller
- add the odata model in a separate AssemblyLoadContext
- make it available for requests
- use this stuff
- on a specific request, unload the AssemblyLoadContext from the memory (including the models, EDM, dbcontext and the odata controller)
TIA

Research direction
Start by reviewing the AddModel registration path in ASP.NET Core OData and the AssemblyLoadContext lifecycle described in the issue. Determine whether models, the EDM, the DbContext, and the OData controller can be registered for requests and later unloaded; done requires a documented feasibility answer or a clearly scoped implementation path.
