Obtaining a list of the keywords for C#

Is there a programmatic way to determine the list of keywords for a particular version of C#?

What I'm after is a list so I can do syntax coloring. I can read a hard coded list but if I can get them programatically then I don't need to worry about updating hte list for each new release,etc.

No, not as far as I know. I needed this recently - I just copied from the C# spec documents.

Also; note that some are contextual keywords ;-p

No, there's no built in api to fetch the C# keywords.

There isn't a programmatic way but you can always use this page as there are different links to each version of the framework and you can extrapolate the language version from that.
