C# Interactive Window with internals

[ZeBobo5]

How could you have access to our internal class of my assembly in C# Interactive Window ?

I tried with the following assembly attribute, but I don't know which assembly to reference:
[assembly: InternalsVisibleTo("...")]

Thanks

The interactive window (or, rather, Roslyn's Scripting API) generates a new assembly with a different name for every submission. For example, note the different suffixes 1-1 and 1-2 with these two consecutive submissions:

> System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().FullName
"ℛ*5c81709c-d79a-42fc-83db-6e0af081c26b#1-1, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null"
> System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().FullName
"ℛ*5c81709c-d79a-42fc-83db-6e0af081c26b#1-2, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null"

So currently I don't believe it's possible. For the time being, you could use ReflectionMagic as a workaround.

We do have a work item on a backlog to introduce #r! "myassembly.dll" that allows you to add a reference to an assembly in REPL and skip visibility checks at all use sites accessing internal members of that assembly.
