Q: 

Postsharp - Get Calling Assembly?

When using a Postsharp OnMethodBoundaryAspect, is there some way to get the calling assembly that initiated the call to a given method? GetCallingAssembly just returns the assembly that the method being called is in.

Note - I am having trouble with the postsharp forums, otherwise I would have posted it there.

A: 

No; there is no way.

The only way is to walk the stack using System.Diagnostics.StackTrace.

Ouch, don't want to do that. Okay, thanks.

But what is your problem with the PostSharp forum? Nobody complains any more, so i guess it's more or less stable...

Walking through the stack is not such a pain: http://geekswithblogs.net/alternativedotnet/archive/2006/02/04/68162.aspx, Check the GetCallingAssemblies() method impementation.

No pain, but a performance burden...
