README.linker Q: Why some stuff is not linked out ? A: In most case this is because: a) the BCL uses it internally b) the mono runtime depends on the type, methods, class layout = mscorlib.dll = System.Security.PermissionSet * Assembly has (3) fields of that type * mscorlib.xml preserve all fields from Assembly (object-internals.h) * code is "stubified" by the linker System.Security.Policy.ApplicationTrust: * Used as a field in AppDomainSetup; * Field also exists in unmanaged code (domain-internals.h); * mscorlib.xml preserve all fields from AppDomainSetup * only the default .ctor remains and is stubified by the linker System.Security.Policy.Evidence * Used by AppDomain.Load[Assembly] * Used by Assembly.LoadWithPartialName overloads * code is "stubified" by the linker = System.dll = System.Text.RegularExpressions.* * Included because there is 2 regex in UriParser
