What are multi-file assemblies used for???

Hello,

I was wondering when multi-file assemblies may be useful.

With multi-file assemblies you may place inside the same assembly
netmodules coded in different languages and as a consequence code from
a module may obviously utilize private and internal classes defined in
other module (maybe even coded in different languages). Apart this I
personally see no other reasons to using multi-file assemblies.

Are there any other reason and situations where multi-file assemblies
have a sense???

May they come useful for application update purposes too??? Do they
allow like the updating of only the changed netmodules and of the
binary file containing the metadata???

BTW I find most annoying not being able to pull all netmodules inside
a single file (but then there would be no multi-file assemblies :-)).
Being able to do so would really be wonderful.

Hi Bob!
Many it is used where your assembly is written with more than one language
. There is a tendency to make all assemblies one files assemblies with
next version of VS.

I've been reading the recent cross-posted flamewar, and read Guido's article where he posits that embedding multi-line lambdas in expressions is an unsolvable puzzle. So for the last 15 minutes I applied myself to this problem and come up with this off-the-wall proposal for you people. Perhaps this idea has been proposed before, I don't know. The solutions I have seen all assume that the lambda must be completely inlined within the...
