Thanks JB.
Probably you can help me here and I know you won't have a
problem :-)
I've written an embedded c# compiler which targets the DynamicMethod
feature of c#.
You write your dynamic code in pure c# and the compiler generates a
dynamic method on the fly.
Now assume that someone has written a c# method which will be compiled
for parser errors, verifiability
and then dynamically injected as a DynamicMethod ready to be executed
via delegate.
So here the user deals with pure c# code and not IL instructions.
for .e.g: the user calls a Method
int num = Int32.Parse("245"); typed in a text editor and invokes my
compiler.
Now during the method resolution phase I use Cecil to find the method
with the signature and would like to generate
the IL instructions for this method call.
So somehow If I am given a MethodInfo instead of a MethodDefinition, I
would pass the MethodInfo to
System.Reflection.Emit(Opcode opcode, MethodInfo minfo);
and get the IL instructions generated.
So you see Cecil plays a very important role in all this.
And JB is all about Cecil. So I look upon you for a great solution :-)
