Is there a good wrapper around ILGenerator? [closed]

I'm using System.Reflection.Emit for a while now, and find it (who don't?) as painful as bug prone.

Do you know if there is a good wrapper around the IL Generator, something that I can rely on to emit IL in a more safe and easier manner than with playing directly with SRE?

Edit:

I know that manipulating expression trees is definitively easier and safer than emitting IL directly, but they also have some constraints right now. I can't create code blocs, use loops, declare and work with several locals, etc. We need to wait until .NET 4 comes out :)

Moreover, I'm dealing with a code base which already relies on SRE.

Obviously, ILGenerator do everything I need. But I would appreciate more assistance when manipulating it. When I'm referring to a ILGenerator wrapper, which remains at a pretty low level, I think about something which could provide methods like:

// Performs a virtual or direct call on the method, depending if it is a 
// virtual or a static one.
Call(MethodInfo methodInfo)

// Pushes the default value of the type on the stack, then emit 
// the Ret opcode.
ReturnDefault(Type type)

// Test the object type to emit the corresponding push 
// opcode (Ldstr, Ldc_I*, Ldc_R*, etc.)
LoadConstant(object o)

It's really 3 naive examples, but it could be enough to demonstrate what I expect. We can see that as a set of extension methods, but it could be nice to have support for conditional statements and loops like in RunSharp. In fact, RunSharp is pretty close that what I want, but it abstracts the ILGenerator too much and doesn't expose all its functionality.

I can't remember where, but I already saw such an helper in an open source project.


回答1:


If you're using .NET 3.5, you may find using Expression Trees to be more reasonable. It entirely depends on what you're doing - and it can still be quite painful - but it's certainly another option to be aware of.

[updated]: I thought of the name ;-p RunSharp. I can't vouch for it, but it might be what you need.

However; what do you need to generate? CodeDom is one option. For creating methods, you might find that you can do a lot more than you expect with the Expression class in .NET 3.5 (after compiling it to a typed delegate via Expression.Lambda/Compile.




回答3:


Try using Mono.Cecil

Cecil is a library written by Jb Evain to generate and inspect programs and libraries in the ECMA CIL format. It has full support for generics, and support some debugging symbol format.
