Hi, Is there any easy way in cecil to get a certain custom-attributes (of a specific type) from a method, and execute a virtual method on it? Just like it can easily be done using a basic System.Reflection.
The only way i can think of is to manually load the assembly containing that attributes (that I've discovered using cecil), then instantiate the attribute using the constructor-arguments information (from cecil), and then copy across all property-values (from cecil). Once you got the attribute instance, I can then execute the method. It seems to be a lot of work for such a _very_ common thing. Oh while I'm here, is there also an easy way to do type.IsAssignableFrom(type) on cecil? At the moment i'm recursively checking all the base-classes within its ancestry line, as well as their interfaces, but it feels very inefficient, considering it's also a very common thing (checking for types assignability is probably far more common than checking for an exact equality). Is there a better way to do this? Thanks before -- -- mono-cecil
