Get the IL out of a method?

[Bilz]

Hi all,

I am curious if there is any way to get the IL from a given method at
runtime? I know about ILDasm.exe, but I was hoping to peek into the
assembly and get the actual IL.

In practice, I want to compile code on the fly using the
CSharpCodeProvider and pull out the IL to store in an XML file.

It seems like I should be able to do this, but I am just not finding
the right classes to do this.

Thanks,
B

Have a look at the MethodBody class - to get a MethodBody, first get a
MethodInfo and then call GetMethodBody.
