How can I add some extern assembly reference to an assembly I generate in
program ?

I use program to generate a assembly, when i see its MANIFEST with ildasm,
it has only

.assembly extern mscorlib
{
.publickeytoken = (B7 7A 5C 56 19 34 E0 89 ) //
.z\V.4..
.ver 1:0:5000:0
}

but assembly generate by compiler from microsoft has many other .assembly
extern such as

.assembly extern Tools
{
.ver 0:0:0:0
}
.assembly extern System
{
.publickeytoken = (B7 7A 5C 56 19 34 E0 89 ) //
.z\V.4..
.ver 1:0:5000:0
}
.assembly extern System.Xml
{
.publickeytoken = (B7 7A 5C 56 19 34 E0 89 ) //
.z\V.4..
.ver 1:0:5000:0
}

How can i add these information to a assembly in program mode.

Thanks

Hi xiaorun huang,

..assembly extern System.Xml means that the assembly is
referring to some objects in the System.Xml assembly.

If you want to add reference to an assembly, in VS.NET,
open solution explorer, right-click References, and select
add reference. Select the assembly whose reference you'd
like to add and thats it.

Thanks! HTH!

Oh, maybe I am not full express me!

I want to do it in porgram mode! I want to write a compiler, so I should
genereate assembly using System.Reflection.Xmit. So I want use what API can
add .assembly extern to a assembly that my compiler will generate!

Reflection Emit will handle that automatically when you use types
defined in external assemblies.

Do you have any reason to add assemblyrefs for assemblies that you
don't actually use in your own assembly?
