2.0.0

Version 2.0.0

Updates:

• Update some serialization implementations for ImmediateReflection core types.
• Dynamic methods generated by ImmediateReflection always use the ImmediateReflection module.

Misc:

• Get rid of targets anterior to .NET Framework 4.0.
• Add target .NET Standard 2.1 to simplify dependency tree when used.
• Assembly is CLS compliant (Common Language Specification).

1.6.1

Version 1.6.1

Fixes:

• Fix wrong generated IL code for copy constructor under .NET5+ target.

1.6.0

Version 1.6.0

Fixes:

• ImmediateType properly handle type having redefined properties with a type different from initial type.

New:

• Use signing key to strong name library assemby.

Misc:

• JetBrains.Annotations are embedded in the assembly (internal).

1.5.0

Version 1.5.0

Fixes:

• IsDefined/GetAttribute(s) properly handle get of attribute when dealing inheriting attributes.

New:

• All ImmediateReflection types are serializable via C# standard serialization.

Misc:

• JetBrains.Annotations are no more embedded in the assembly, replaced by a private reference to official NuGet.
• Minor optimization.

1.4.1

Version 1.4.1

Fixes:

• Properly handle null parameter for Copy and TryCopy (return null).

Updates:

• Copy and TryCopy consider string and Type as copyable types and return themselves if asked.

1.4.0

Version 1.4.0

New:

• Add an access to the Declaring Type directly through ImmediateType, ImmediateProperty and ImmediateField.
• Add an access to the Base Type directly through ImmediateType.
• Add CopyConstructorDelegate delegate.
• Add the possibility to call Copy constructor in a faster way than Activator from ImmediateType.
• Add a type extension to check if a type has a default constructor.
• Add type extensions to check if a type has a copy constructor and to directly call it.
• Add object extensions to check if an instance can be copied by a copy constructor and to directly call it.

Updates:

• Globally optimize the library by reducing the number of redundant null checks.
• Slightly optimize the branching in generated code.

1.3.0

Version 1.3.0

New:

• Add type extensions to directly call a default constructor delegate from a Type (without ImmediateType).
• Add type extensions to directly call a constructor delegate from a Type (without ImmediateType).

Fixes:

• ImmediateType properly handle arrays which were crashing before.

Updates:

• Default constructor delegates available via ImmediateType are now cached and shared across several instance of ImmediateType.
• ImmediateProperty are now cached and shared across several instance of ImmediateType.
• ImmediateField are now cached and shared across several instance of ImmediateType.

1.2.0

Version 1.2.0

New:

• Add ConstructorDelegate delegate.

Fixes:

• Classes with indexed properties does not crash anymore.

Updates:

• Lazily initialize fields property of ImmediateType.

1.1.0

Version 1.1.0

Updates:

• Improve performances of memory caching within the library.
• Extend support of built-in cache to every target.
• Make some methods only available as extensions accessible as normal methods on targets not supporting extensions.
• IL generated methods are now prefixed to help identify them.

Misc:

• API Reference and documentation generated based on sources.

1.0.0

Version 1.0.0

Fixes:

• Properly supports static readonly and constant fields.
• Properly handle reflection on enumeration types.

Updates:

• Default flags taken into account when getting an ImmediateType are Public | Instance | Static
• Get rid of cache system references replaced by a simpler internal caching system.
• Extend caching support to target .NET Framework 4.0.

New:

• Add the possibility to call the default constructor of type in a faster way (with or without throw).
• ImmediateType provides access to every members via Members/GetMembers()/indexed member APIs.
• ImmediateType, ImmediateField and ImmediateProperty provide a faster access to attributes.
• Extensions to retrieve Immediate Reflection types from standard types.
• Extensions to retrieve attributes from standard MemberInfo.
• Provide helpers to easily create strongly typed delegate to get/set properties.
• Add an object wrapper that allows to get/set value on a specific object instance.

Misc:

• Improve library documentation.
• Library is fully ReSharper annotated.
