Hi all,

I recently needed to compare versions of different DLL's to try to
find the one most like a production version. There are a lot of ways
and tools for this sort of thing, but what I really wanted was a simple
ASCII display of methods and property prototypes in file so I could
compare multiple files with notepad.

Being a stubborn programmer, of course, I futzed around for an hour or two with
different utilities I had access to before deciding that I really needed
a library that would let me poke around inside a DLL using Reflection,
so I could generate what I wanted exactly the way I wanted it.
I created a sample app and wrote an article about it.

Part of the app it is a set of wrapper
classes that give access to the Reflection types without duplicating them.
Its a very thin layer that should be easy to customize, because whats perfect
for one person isn't likely to be perfect for someone else.

Also, just for fun I put in a simple CIL/MSIL disassembler.
The article and the sample application with source are available at

Hope it helps someone save a little time.
