+Summary: Module constructor of libraries is not executed
+
+Compile this IL sample to get a library that contains a module constructor
+(TestDll.dll) :
+
+
+.assembly TestDll { }
+.assembly extern mscorlib { }
+
+.method assembly specialname rtspecialname static 
+        void  .cctor() cil managed
+{
+	ldstr "Module contructor executed"
+	call void [mscorlib]System.Console::WriteLine(string)
+	ret
+}
+
+.namespace NS
+{
+	.class public TestClass extends [mscorlib]System.Object
+	{
+		.method public hidebysig specialname rtspecialname 
+				instance void  .ctor() cil managed
+		{
+		  ldarg.0
+		  call       instance void [mscorlib]System.Object::.ctor()
+		  ret
+		}
+	}
+}
+
+
+Then compile Test.cs using TestDll as reference :
+
+public class Program
+{
+    public static void Main()
+    {
+        NS.TestClass cls = new NS.TestClass();
+    }
+}
+
+
+When you execute Test.exe you'll see that the module constructor of TestDll
+is not getting executed.
+
+(Note: A module constructor in an executable is working)
