Class PEFile

Namespace

ICSharpCode.Decompiler.Metadata

Assembly

ICSharpCode.Decompiler.dll

PEFile is the main class the decompiler uses to represent a metadata assembly/module. Every file on disk can be loaded into a standalone PEFile instance.

A PEFile can be combined with its referenced assemblies/modules to form a type system, in that case the MetadataModule class is used instead.

Remarks

In addition to wrapping a System.Reflection.Metadata.PEReader, this class contains a few decompiler-specific caches to allow efficiently constructing a type system from multiple PEFiles. This allows the caches to be shared across multiple decompiled type systems.
