AssemblyExtensions

Examples

The following example demonstrates generating a from an assembly using the GetCacheValidator(Assembly, Func<Hash>, Action<FileChecksumOptions>) extension method.

using System;
using System.Reflection;
using Cuemon.Data.Integrity;
using Cuemon.Extensions.Data.Integrity;

namespace MyApp.Examples;

public class AssemblyExtensionsExample
{
    public static void Main()
    {
        // Get a reference to any loaded assembly
        Assembly assembly = typeof(AssemblyExtensionsExample).Assembly;

        // Generate a CacheValidator from the assembly's file metadata
        CacheValidator validator = assembly.GetCacheValidator();

        Console.WriteLine($"Assembly: {assembly.GetName().Name}");
        Console.WriteLine($"Created (UTC): {validator.Created:O}");
        Console.WriteLine($"Modified (UTC): {validator.Modified?.ToString("O") ?? "N/A"}");
        Console.WriteLine($"Checksum (hex): {validator.Checksum.ToHexadecimalString()}");
        Console.WriteLine($"Validation strength: {validator.Validation}");

        // Use the CacheValidator for HTTP cache validation scenarios
        Console.WriteLine($"\nETag candidate: \"{validator.Checksum.ToHexadecimalString()}\"");

}
}

Methods

GetCacheValidator(Assembly, Func<Hash>, Action<FileChecksumOptions>)

Returns a CacheValidator from the specified assembly.

public static CacheValidator GetCacheValidator(this Assembly assembly, Func<Hash> hashFactory = null, Action<FileChecksumOptions> setup = null)

Parameters

assembly Assembly: The assembly to resolve a CacheValidator from.
hashFactory Func<Hash>: The function delegate that is invoked to produce the HashResult.
setup Action<FileChecksumOptions>: The FileChecksumOptions which may be configured.

Returns
