# IgnoresAccessChecksTo Generator (MSBuild)

[![NuGet](https://img.shields.io/nuget/v/IgnoresAccessChecksToGenerator.svg?style=flat-square)](https://www.nuget.org/packages/IgnoresAccessChecksToGenerator)

The `IgnoresAccessChecksToAttribute` is the reverse of the `InternalsVisibleToAttribute` - it allows an assembly to declare assemblies whose internals would be visible to it. The attribute class isn't declared in the BCL but is recognized by the CLR (Desktop >= 4.6 and Core), i.e. you can declare it in your code and it would work.

Since there's currently no compiler support for this attribute (I've [submitted a PR](https://github.com/dotnet/roslyn/pull/20870) to Roslyn), this package can be used as a workaround. It **generates reference assemblies where all the internal types & members become public**, and adds a C# file with the attribute and its instances.

## Usage

Just add the package and define `IgnoresAccessChecksTo` items with the assemblies you need access to.

```xml
