Get instances from a DLL/Assembly?

I got the following code that generates a DLL :

public class MyObject : DependencyObject
{
}


public class Timer : DependencyObject
{
}

public class AnotherClass
{
}

public class Test
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        MyObject q1 = new MyObject();
        MyObject q2 = new MyObject();
        MyObject q3 = new MyObject();
        MyObject q4 = new MyObject();

        Timer t1 = new Timer();
        Timer t2 = new Timer();
        Timer t3 = new Timer();

        AnotherClass a1 = new AnotherClass();
        AnotherClass a2 = new AnotherClass();
        AnotherClass a3 = new AnotherClass();
    }
}

Then I'd like to extract instances from my DLL file. Here is what I got for the moment :

var library = Assembly.LoadFrom(libraryPath);

But then, I havent any idea about how to extract my 10 instances (4 MyObjects, 3 Timers & 3 AnotherClasses). The only thing I managed to get is the 4 classes (MyObject, Timer, AnotherClass and Test) with the code :

IEnumerable<Type> types = library.GetTypes();

but I think this is not the way I'll get my 10 instances...

(ps : I'm not even sure that the 10 instances are contained in my DLL file...)

Your question doesn't make any sense.

Those instances only exist as you execute Main().

If Main() contains a loop that depends on user input, what would you want to get?
