A follow up to my previous article, this article takes the plug-in concept and encapsulates it in a Generics enabled library, including support for source code compilation at runtime.
using System.Reflection;
using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

// Information about this assembly is defined by the following
// attributes.
//
// change them to the information which is associated with the assembly
// you compile.

[assembly: AssemblyTitle("ExtensionManager")]
[assembly: AssemblyDescription("")]
[assembly: AssemblyConfiguration("")]
[assembly: AssemblyCompany("")]
[assembly: AssemblyProduct("ExtensionManager")]
[assembly: AssemblyCopyright("Jon Dick 2007")]
[assembly: AssemblyTrademark("")]
[assembly: AssemblyCulture("")]

// This sets the default COM visibility of types in the assembly to invisible.
// If you need to expose a type to COM, use [ComVisible(true)] on that type.
[assembly: ComVisible(false)]

// The assembly version has following format :
//
// Major.Minor.Build.Revision
//
// You can specify all values by your own or you can build default build and revision
// numbers with the '*' character (the default):

[assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.*")]
