[Mono-devel-list] Assembly.GetType hangs?

[Kris Luyten]

Hi,

I don't know if this is normal behaviour, but I though I'll post it
anyway. When using Assembly.GetType(String, true, true) with an
erroneous string starting with a "&", the method hangs itself. I think
it is suppose to throw an "ArgumentException" according to the msdn.

For example, the following code waits forever in GetType:
=====
using System;
using System.Reflection;

public class Sample
{
  public static void Main()
  {
	  Assembly a = Assembly.Load("corlib.dll");
	  Console.WriteLine("1");
	  Type t = a.GetType("&blabla", true, true);
	  Console.WriteLine("2");

  }

}
=====

I am currently using mono and mcs from CVS.

Regards,
Kris
