Friend Assemblies

  • Article

.NET Framework v2.0 introduces the concept of "friend assemblies", where an assembly may declare that its internal type definitions are visible to specified other assemblies. This is done using the System.Runtime.CompilerServices.InternalsVisibleToAttribute.

Dotfuscator Community Edition assumes that all friend assemblies to an input assembly are also input assemblies; if that is not the case, manual configuration is required to ensure that referenced internal names are not mangled.
