Module[]
An array of modules.

Exceptions
The module to be loaded does not specify a file name extension.
Examples
The following example displays the name of the module in the returned array that contains the assembly manifest.
C#
using System;
using System.Reflection;
public class Example
{
public static void Main()
{
Assembly mainAssembly = typeof(Example).Assembly;
Console.WriteLine("The executing assembly is {0}.", mainAssembly);
Module[] mods = mainAssembly.GetModules();
Console.WriteLine("\tModules in the assembly:");
foreach (Module m in mods)
Console.WriteLine("\t{0}", m);
}
}
Imports System.Reflection
Public Class Example
Public Shared Sub Main()
Dim mainAssembly As Assembly = GetType(Example).Assembly
Console.WriteLine("The executing assembly is {0}.", mainAssembly)
Dim mods() As [Module] = mainAssembly.GetModules()
Console.WriteLine(vbTab & "Modules in the assembly:")
For Each m As [Module] In mods
Console.WriteLine(vbTab & m.ToString())
Next
End Sub
End Class
Remarks
This method works on public and private resource files.
Note
Modules must be emitted with file name extensions.
