## Features

### Polyfill behavior

Defines the following types in a .NET Standard 2.0 library:

* `ImportedFromTypeLibAttribute`

* `TypeLibVersionAttribute`

These types get forwarded to the appropriate runtime types.

The assembly in the package *is* required at runtime unless all referencing projects actually target a framework that already defines the attributes.

### Additional functionality when migrating to .NET Core, .NET 5+

#### .NET Framework assembly load behavior

The `NetFrameworkAssemblyResolver` class eases migration of an extensible .NET Framework application to .NET Core / .NET 5+ by emulating assembly load behavior of the .NET Framework CLR including probing paths, codebase paths, binding redirects and honoring the full assembly name when loading assembly references.

For example:

```cs

var assemblyLoader = new NetFrameworkAssemblyResolver("myapp.exe.config");

assemblyLoader.HookupResolver(AssemblyLoadContext.Default);

```
