Bug in Removing Nested Types

[Lotfi]

Hy Jb,

Its seams that a removing a nested type from an assembly using Cecil
leads to corrupted metadata. Consider the simple following case :

class Class1
{
class Class2
{ }
}

Removing the class "Class1/Class2" would cause the metadata to be
corrupted !

AssemblyDefinition ad = AssemblyFactory.GetAssembly("CecilTest.exe");
ad.MainModule.Types.Remove(ad.MainModule.Types["Class1/Class2"]);

AssemblyFactory.SaveAssembly(ad, "CecilTest2.exe");

PEVerify prints :
[MD]: Error (Structural): Table=0x00000029, Col=0x00000000,
Row=0x00000001, has rid out of range.

Please help !

You'd also have to remove the class from the NestedTypes collection of
the declaring type.
