I tried googling for this without much success, so I thought I would come here. I am using Red Gate's .NET Reflector to explore some assemblies. Is there any way to limit the search to particular assemblies or namespaces?
For example, if I search for "table", I get a whole heap of results such as the IFormattable
in the System
namespace in the mscorlib
assembly. Is there any way to limit this search without removing these libraries from the current list of libraries opened in .NET Reflector?
You can get close to what you want without removing all of the assemblies from the tree. Since a click on the Assembly column header will change the sort order, you can easily see all the ones in mscorlib
grouped together.
Of course, unlike removing assemblies from the tree, this will not improve the performance of the search operation. Note that you can use the File, Open List command to maintain multiple lists of assemblies that you can easily switch between.
