[Mono-dev] System.ExecutionEngineException: Failed to create shadow copy (CopyFile).

Fri Dec 27 18:22:40 UTC 2013

It depends on what information you're trying to inspect. It should have the
same laziness in resolving type information as .NET.

Where in the inspected type does the missing assembly come into play?

It should be simple to build a test case for that, just delete one assembly
after compilation is done.
