Getting MSIL code from VS.NET

[Alex Fennell]

Hi All

I can't seem to find anything about this but is there a way to get VS.Net to compile into ASCII MSIL rather than a binary assembly? Would I have to use the command line compiler to do this?

As far as I know, the command line compilers won't generate an MSIL
listing either. You can use "ildasm /TEXT" or "ildasm /OUT=filename" to
get an MSIL listing.

Drop the ildasm command into your makefile or a "post-build event" if
you're using VS.NET 20030 (or a makefile project that's dependant on
your real project if you're using VS.NET 2002).

Here's how I added the ability to fire-up ILDASM for the current
project's executable:

Tools ->
External Tools... ->
Add ->
Title: ILDASM ->
Command: ... ->
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET
2003\SDK\v1.1\Bin\ildasm.exe ->
Arguments: $(TargetPath) ->
OK
