Could you comment on the new Introspection engine, that FXCop uses, and whether it is available in Whidbey? I refer you to this link http://wesnerm.blogs.com/net_undocumented/2004/05/introspection.html.

I don't know all that much about the FxCop "introspection" engine, however I know that it is designed to serve FxCop's static analysis scenario. This is somewhat different to where Reflection currently is, a runtime datastructure and metadata abstraction, which adheres to the rules of the runtime. Just think Reflection over virtual members for a good sense of what I mean.

Having said that, we have put thought into a managed metadata API. I'd be interested in feedback from the community about how compelling a feature like that would be.

Why is the performance information a touchy subject? Is it really getting better?

Regarding Token handle resolution APIs, I don't quite know what that means, but I have a guess (and a suggestion that if this isn't what this does, should be done somewhere else).

Will this allow me to take the Method{Def/Ref}Token I can get by reading the byte[] from a MethodBody and convert it into a RuntimeMethodHandle and from there into a MethodInfo to disassemble Call and CallVirt opcodes?

Sounds Wonderful!

A few questions:

1. Does the 'reflection-only' context have a mechanism which allows assemblies to be unloaded? I appreciate the rational for not allowing unloading in normal contexts, but it would be *really* useful here - even if it only flushed the entire context, rather than individual assemblies

2. Is it possible to reflect over an assembly that has a StrongNameIdentityPermissionAttribute?

3. Is it possible to load an assembly from a network share?

4. Is it possible to reflect over CF assemblies?

A missing link in the code. You write:

Assembly asm = Assembly.ReflectionOnlyLoad("assembly.dll");
// ...
Type t = Type.ReflectionOnlyGetType("MyType", false, false);

what exactly needs to come in the middle in order for someone to know that a type called "MyType" exists in the assembly? The only way I knew was asm.GetTypes() but that defeats the whole purpose of ReflectionOnly....
