DESCRIPTION

      The monodis program is used to dump the contents a CIL image (contained
      in .EXE files that contain extended PE/COFF CIL code).

      To  roundtrip  assemblies  using  ilasm, it is best to use the --output
      argument, as that will make monodis  save  the  embedded  resources  in
      files that can later be properly embedded back by ilasm.

OPTIONS

      The following Generic options are supported:

      --help , -h
             Displays usage instructions.

      --output=FILENAME
             Write  output  into  FILENAME  and  dump  any  embedded  managed
             resources.

      --mscorlib
             For non-corlib assemblies, use "mscorlib" as the assembly  name.
             This is useful for round-tripping the IL with ilasm.

      --show-method-tokens
             Display tokens for disassembled methods.

      --assembly
             Dumps the contents of the Assembly table.

      --classlayout
             Dumps the contents of the ClassLayout table.

      --constant
             Dumps the contents of the Constant table.

      --method
             Dumps the contents of the MethodDef table.

      --methodimpl
             Dumps the contents of the MethodImpl table.

      --methodspec
             Dumps the contents of the MethodSpec table.

      --methodsem
             Dumps the contents of the MethodSemantics table.

      --module
             Dumps the contents of the Module table.

      --moduleref
             Dumps the contents of the ModuleRef table.

      --mresources
             Dumps the managed resources embedded in the assembly.

      If no flags are specified the program dumps the content of the image in
      a format that can be used to rountrip the code.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

      MONO_PATH
             Provides a search path to  mono  and  mint  where  to  look  for
             library  files.   Directories are separated by the platform path
             separator    (colons    on    unix).    Example:     /home/user‐
             name/lib:/usr/local/mono/lib
