Manual Compilation of Csharp code using Rosyln

• Nuget package Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp

\\ A code.cs file has class "Greeter" and method "SayHello"

var code = File.readAllText("code.cs");
var tree = SyntaxFactory.ParseSyntaxTree(code);
var options = new CSharpCompilationOptions(OutputKind.DynamicallyLinkedLibrary);
var reference = new MetadataFileReference(typeof(object).Assembly.Location)

var compilation = CSharpCompilation.Create("test").WithOptions(options).AddSyntaxTrees(tree).AddReferences(reference);

var diagnostics = compilation.GetDiagnostics();
foreach (var diagnostic in diagnostics ) 
{
  System.Console.WriteLine(diagnostic.ToString());
}

using stream(var stream = new MemoryStream())
{
  compilation.Emit(stream);

  var assembly = Assembly.Load(stream.GetBuffer());
  var type = assembly.GetType("Greeter");
  var greeter = Activator.CreateInstance(type);
  var method = type.GetMethod("SayHello");
  method.Invoke(greeter, null);
}
