Fernando,
Thanks, that's very interesting. But your example didn't work for me out
of the box:
d:\projects\assembly1\assembly2\test.cs(8,2): error CS0647: Error
emitting 'Assembly1.BuildAttribute' attribute -- 'Unexpected exception
processing attribute -- System.Security.SecurityException: Request for
the permission of type
System.Security.Permissions.EnvironmentPermission, mscorlib,
Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089
failed.
The state of the failed permission was:
<IPermission class="System.Security.Permissions.EnvironmentPermission,
mscorlib, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089"
version="1"
Read="UserName"/>
.'
However, I'm running as non-admin, may be this is the reason. If I
remove Environment.UserName all works fine. So at least getting build
date/time works. Cool!
Sincerely, Ilya Ryzhenkov
