There is another similar tool available from MSR absil.I have not played with cecil yet ut do you know if it supports symbols? The big problem with most link time weaves in .NET is that debugging is tough for the mangled code.

I think the Cecil project from Mono would be useful for AOP and most dynamic stuff. http://www.mono-project.com/Cecil "Cecil is a library written by Jb Evain to generate and inspect programs and libraries in the ECMA CIL format. In simple English, with Cecil, you can load existing managed assemblies, browse all the contained types, modify them on the fly and save back to the disk the modified assembly. Today it is used by the Mono Debugger by the bug-finding and compliance checking tool Gendarme as well as DB4O."
