Release a new version supporting RVA field alignment #896

Closed sbomer closed 1 year ago

sbomer commented 1 year ago

There are many bugs which have been fixed since the last release. Notably, https://github.com/jbevain/cecil/pull/817 and https://github.com/jbevain/cecil/pull/888 are required to support reading/writing assemblies that use the CreateSpan helpers introduced in .NET 7. There is also support for other new language features, such as support for generic attributes (https://github.com/jbevain/cecil/pull/871), and significant fixes like determinism hardening (https://github.com/jbevain/cecil/pull/810).

See https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/81835 for context, where code that is instrumented for code coverage using an old cecil crashes due to alignment issues related to CreateSpan.

@jbevain would it be possible to release a new version soon?
