Assemblies and Namespaces

Most objects you use to build analyzers and code refactorings are exposed by the Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.dll and Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.VisualBasic.dll assemblies, as well as from the Microsoft.CodeAnalysis and Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.VisualBasic namespaces. Additional libraries, namespaces, and objects are mentioned throughout this chapter. If you are interested in discovering more about assemblies, namespaces, and type definitions in the .NET Compiler Platform, you can browse the Reference Source online, available at http://source.roslyn.io, which also provides the source code for compilers and the other APIs.
