Hi,
while working on an updated version of mono.merge using cecil 0.9, I'm
having a hard time cloning SecurityDeclarations on methods (maybe on
other objects, too). I'm merging a 3rd party assembly with a
SecurityDeclaration on a method with the following ildasm layout:
.permissionset linkcheck "<PermissionSet
class=\"System.Security.PermissionSet\"\r\n version=\"1\">\r\n
<IPermission
class=\"System.Security.Permissions.StrongNameIdentityPermission,
mscorlib, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089\"\r\n version=\"1\"\r\n
PublicKeyBlob=\"002400000480000094000000060200000024000052534131000400000100010071E9D3E8FB4B521B04EA8F76D94C5FE657793FF51E88DD9DD1AD6D056525454770A74B63478A1B63ED2AD979E65BEE25DE44BA686242CE430F0C7DF1475C18BEB5467555F740961A969E5E411CA4567C73B471F32815041356C9A106309D46EF9F232CB4BB0B0746475B5DB8CE1D4FCF17D99A80A0F7205DFD03D43B109583C2\"/>\r\n</PermissionSet>\r\n"
but after merging, I get this:
.permissionset linkcheck = {class
'System.Security.Permissions.PermissionSetAttribute' = {property string
'XML' = string('<PermissionSet
class=\"System.Security.PermissionSet\"\r\n version=\"1\">\r\n
<IPermission
class=\"System.Security.Permissions.StrongNameIdentityPermission,
mscorlib, Version=1.0.5000.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089\"\r\n version=\"1\"\r\n
PublicKeyBlob=\"002400000480000094000000060200000024000052534131000400000100010071E9D3E8FB4B521B04EA8F76D94C5FE657793FF51E88DD9DD1AD6D056525454770A74B63478A1B63ED2AD979E65BEE25DE44BA686242CE430F0C7DF1475C18BEB5467555F740961A969E5E411CA4567C73B471F32815041356C9A106309D46EF9F232CB4BB0B0746475B5DB8CE1D4FCF17D99A80A0F7205DFD03D43B109583C2\"/>\r\n</PermissionSet>\r\n')}}
So it seems like cecil has problems with copying such
SecurityDeclarations. What I do in the merge process is simply copying
the SecurityDeclaration by cloning it (creating a new one and adding all
fields and properties, which are cloned, too). However, the above result
is the same when just copying the SecurityDeclaration from the original
assembly.
Pure roundtripping (read assembly with ReadingMode.Immediate, write to
another location) works, but I guess cecil does not touch the
SecurityDeclarations in this case?
If you need a repro, let me know. Any help greatly appreciated :-)
