How to list all loaded assemblies in PCL (portable class library)

It's easy to get list of all loaded assemblies in .NET:

AppDomain.CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies()

But I can't find a way to do this in PCL (portable class library) code? Any suggestions?

AppDomain just isn't portable. Entirely missing in Store and Phone8, very limited capabilities in the CoreCLR. So it is omitted in PCL. – Hans Passant
I know that AppDomain isn't portable. So there is no way to get all loaded assemblies in PCL? – Andrey

Not sure if Deployment.Current.Parts is available in PCL, but I use:

public static List<Assembly> GetAssemblies()
{
    List<Assembly> assemblies = new List<Assembly>();

    foreach (var assemblyPart in Deployment.Current.Parts)
    {
        StreamResourceInfo sri = Application.GetResourceStream(new Uri(assemblyPart.Source, UriKind.Relative));
        Assembly a = new AssemblyPart().Load(sri.Stream);

        if (a != null)
            assemblies.Add(a);
    }

    return assemblies;   
}
