using namespace System;
using namespace System::Runtime::Remoting::MetadataServices;
int main()
{
   MetaData::ConvertCodeSourceFileToAssemblyFile( "CsSource.cs", "testAssm.dll", "" );
   return 0;
}

using System;
using System.Runtime.Remoting.MetadataServices;

public class Test
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      MetaData.ConvertCodeSourceFileToAssemblyFile("CsSource.cs", "testAssm.dll", "");
   }
}

Imports System.Runtime.Remoting.MetadataServices


Public Class Test
   
   Public Shared Sub Main()
      MetaData.ConvertCodeSourceFileToAssemblyFile("CsSource.cs", "testAssm.dll", "")
   End Sub
End Class
