Presentation: "Advanced Reflection"

Track: .NET State of the Art

Time: Friday 10:35 - 11:35

Location: Henry Moore Room, Fourth Floor

Abstract:

.net, as a modern development environment, provides useful reflection capabilities.

This talk will be about going beyond what the .net framework provides by standard, to analyze and manipulate programs, and have a glimpse of metaprogramming on .net, using cross platform libraries such as Mono.Reflection, Mono.Linq.Expressions, and Mono.Cecil.
