SkipType

[obiwanjacobi]

I'm not sure if this is a bug or I am just using it wrong but...

I'm having trouble getting SkipType to work. I'm using VS.NET 2005 and
want to skip the Settings file for my project (otherwise runtime
reflection is screwed). So I specified my module tag (only one module,
so thats easy) and a SkipType and a SkipMethod tag inside the Module
tag. Something like this ("Jacobi" is my surname).

<Module file="$(InPath)\Jacobi.MyApp.exe" >
<SkipType type="Jacobi.MyApp.Properties.Settings" />
<SkipMethod type="Jacobi.MyApp.Properties.Settings"
attrib="public" rx=".*" />
</Module>

In the mapping file I can see that the public methods (and properties)
are skipped, but the type is still being obfucated (into A.f)
Am I doing it wrong?

Try:

<Module file="$(InPath)\Jacobi.MyApp.exe" >
<SkipType name="Jacobi.MyApp.Properties.Settings" />

<SkipMethod type="Jacobi.MyApp.Properties.Settings"
attrib="public" rx=".*" />
</Module>

The attribute in your SkipType element that specifies the name of the
type should be 'name'.

Thanx.
I misread the example you gave on the mono-cecil group.
Duh! ;-)

Hi,
 
I've started with this Xml schema to document the settings file structure.
Perhaps you could include it in your source files (and perhaps embed it as a resource in the assemby).
 
With schema-based xml editors this will get developers started very quickly.

Grtx,

PS: I've entered another issue: code attributes on members!
