I try to compile some simple code (a c# class), which is using own Attribute. The CSharpCodeCompiler doesn't throw an error if my properties of class do not use the custom Attribute.
this is my String:
string _string = @"
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
namespace Generator
{
public class ExampleClass
{
public int id { get; set; }
}
}"
var csc = new CSharpCodeProvider();
var cc = csc.CreateCompiler();
CompilerParameters cp = new CompilerParameters();
cp.ReferencedAssemblies.Add("mscorlib.dll");
cp.ReferencedAssemblies.Add("System.dll");
cp.ReferencedAssemblies.Add("System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations.dll");
cp.ReferencedAssemblies.Add("System.ComponentModel.dll");
cp.ReferencedAssemblies.Add("System.Runtime.InteropServices.dll");
cp.ReferencedAssemblies.Add(typeof(GUID).Assembly.Location);
CompilerResults results = csc.CompileAssemblyFromSource(cp, _string);
System.Reflection.Assembly _assembly = results.CompiledAssembly;
Type[] _types = _assembly.GetTypes();
Type eType = _assembly.GetType(namespaceAndClass);
It is perfectly compiled with the above code. But if I use my custom Attribute it will throw an error.
My attribute class:
using System;
namespace Generator
{
[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.All)]
class GUID : Attribute
{
private string guid { get; set; }
public GUID()
{
this.guid = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
}
public GUID(string value)
{
this.guid = value;
}
public string getGuid()
{
return guid;
}
}
}
I need the string to be compiled with my custom Attributes ... [GUID()] public int id { get; set; }
When I try this, I get this error: Exception thrown: 'System.IO.FileNotFoundException' in mscorlib.dll
