Is there a way to get the assembly location of the source code through reflection?
Warning . I am not looking for the current assembly location, and the place was the source code when it was compiled.
eg.
Given: myAssembly.dll
c:\program files\myapp\myAssembly.dll <- I'm NOT looking for this location. This is its current location.
d:\dev\myapp\main.cs <- this is the location I want; the location were the source code resided when it was compiled
I started with this, but so far I have not been able to find which rabbit hole to get in to get this information so far.
Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetType("myAssembly.Main").<something>
If exceptions occur in .Net, you will often see the name of the class that selected the exception along with the full path to the source file. This is what I need. I understand that a .pdb symbol file may be required to get this location.
