[Mono-devel-list] [PATCH] Check for assembly attributes

[Carlos Alberto Cortez]

Hey,

I just checked it, and saw that in the .Net docs, it states that
AssemblyName (string name) receives the simple name. However, in the
beta 2, if you pass the long format name, it parses it. 

I think we should keep this change to mcs this way, and wait for this
change in the api (System.Reflection) to be 'official'. On the other
hand, we could just implement the constructor the way .Net does, and the
re-use it.

Carlos.
