RoslynAssembly

this is a sample that describes how to dynamically compile snippets of C# code int net modules using Roslyn and assemble them together into a dynamic assembly. This is the code for the article https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/1215168/Using-Roslyn-for-Compiling-Code-into-Separate-Net

Note that the net modules were not included into .NET CORE so this approach will not work under .NET core!!!

[Question] Is it possible compile CSharpCompilation to class object

Thank your for article and code,

If Class A is in different file or different project lib, without string actual Class. Then is it possible to have reference in Class B

This sample does not explain one case...

I figured out that to build an assembly with mutliple classes I had to reference netmodule from main module
In your article it seems pretty obvious because in class program you use other classes.
But if you don't use them, the main module still need to reference other. which is counter intuitive.
and we got a wrong error message on LoadModule call saying "specified file is not valid"
Anyway, your sample does not explain one particular case and I can't find any relevant keyword to search this case:

how to compile two pieces of code that reference each other ?
Example:

Class Node { Edge edge; }

Class Edge { Node node; }

It seems impossible because we can't have both MetadataReference before compiling them...
