Question

Not a question but a simple tool to easily convert Reflector (V5, v6) plugins to v7. As a lot of users are asking about addins compatibility.

D:\Outils\Reflector7\plugins&gt;PluginConverter.exe CppCliLanguage.dll 7.0.0.0

You should find that this is no longer necessary: Reflector 5 & 6 add-ins will load successfully in Reflector 7.3 and later. If you find any compatibility issues, please let us know on a separate thread.

Thanks,

Bart

Thanks for the tool. As an alternative i just redirected the assembly version in reflector.config.

&lt;runtime&gt;
   [...]
   [...]
    &lt;assemblyBinding xmlns=&quot;urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1&quot;&gt;
      &lt;dependentAssembly&gt;
        &lt;assemblyIdentity name=&quot;Reflector&quot; publicKeyToken=&quot;18ca6bb8dd6a03c3&quot; culture=&quot;neutral&quot; /&gt;
        &lt;bindingRedirect oldVersion=&quot;0.0.0.0-6.65535.65535.65535&quot; newVersion=&quot;7.0.0.0&quot; /&gt;
      &lt;/dependentAssembly&gt;
    &lt;/assemblyBinding&gt;
 &lt;/runtime&gt;

Just a note on the binding redirect - you can now Right click on an Assembly at the top level in the Assembly tree and choose Create Binding Redirect to have the xml generated and added to you clipboard. You'll have to adjust the version numbers to what you want though ... Binding Redirect Image

great feature

Nice idea, but doesn't opening Reflector in Reflector breach the license agreement? :)

If you're going to write any Reflector addins, sooner or later you'll have to open Relector in Reflector since there isn't any documentation on the addin api's.
