Hello
When a program raises an event and the event has a Byref parameter, the byref is lost

Thank you
Marc

Input code

Public Class Demo
    Public Event ConversionNeeded(ai_OrigID As Integer, ByRef NewID As Integer)


    Public Function TestConversion(ai_ID) As Integer
        Dim i_NewValue As Integer
        RaiseEvent ConversionNeeded(ai_ID, i_NewValue)
        Return i_NewValue
    End Function

End Class

Erroneous output

public class Demo
    {
        public event ConversionNeededEventHandler ConversionNeeded;

        public delegate void ConversionNeededEventHandler(int ai_OrigID, int NewID);

        public int TestConversion(int ai_ID)
        {
            var i_NewValue = default(int);
            ConversionNeeded?.Invoke(ai_ID, i_NewValue);
            return i_NewValue;
        }

Expected output

public class Demo
    {
        public event ConversionNeededEventHandler ConversionNeeded;

        public delegate void ConversionNeededEventHandler(int ai_OrigID, ref int NewID);

        public int TestConversion(int ai_ID)
        {
            var i_NewValue = default(int);
            ConversionNeeded?.Invoke(ai_ID,ref i_NewValue);
            return i_NewValue;
        }

* Changelog

* Update README.md

* Rough outline of dotnet tool that converts all vb in a solution to c#

TODO:

- MSBuild resolution (probably installing the right packages)
- Args to deal with project files
- Args to deal with overwriting
- Args to deal with different output directory
- Args to force skipping nuget restore
- Args to force continuing with compile errors

Spike of icsharpcode#555

* More args

* Handle msbuild properties and projects

* Rearrange

* SDK version is missing, build against an older one

* Allow use of another directory - fixes icsharpcode#217

* Copying fixups

* Off topic: Use language names

* Use any assemblies hanging around in the app domain too

* Pull out project creation

* Remove cache for comparison

* Improve constructor generation

* Parenthesize cast expressions

* Run in dot net core and characterize reasonable changes

* Use net core types in GlobalImportsStatement

* Add missing using

* Disable check

The versions that come out in .net core are totally different

* Try to preserve conversions to char and array for back-compat

* Block all overwriting unless comitted to git or forced

* Create DirectoryInfoExtensions

* Use MSBuildWorkspaceConverter

* Make static

* Reorder

* Don't dispose, let it be used by other tests since it's immutable

* Attempts useing VS msbuild so system runtime types resolve

* Fix git diff

* Avoid yield because it's a linked file

* Set AnyCPU to give auto-detection a chance

* Try x64

* Run .net core tests

* Spike targeting net48

Need to then figure out if we can use a command line argument to launch the net framework version based on a command line option

If it works in this form, I can pull all the code into a netstandard library which the tests could reference (and even multi-target themselves if we wanted to test with both runtimes)

* Patch in missing behaviour

* Split out tons of parts to get around core vs framework nightmare

* DotNetTool commands must be dot net core
* Dot net core's msbuildlocator uses the net core sdk for workspace creation
  * The net core sdk can't resolve references for framework projects
* Specifically locating msbuild for .net framework throws an error about a missing method - it's not compatible

* Shared project

* Review: Make some things public

I don't really want people from other repos using these since they aren't stable APIs, just helpers. Might need to rethink how to share these

* Revert test framework-related changes

* Call one from the other

* Tell users about this new switch when it inevitably causes pain

Would be better off doing some simple detection on the project files probably.
The framework version of the exe is actually more flexible since it works for framework and core, but it won't work on other platforms. It may make sense to just try to detect when the framework one is runnable.

* Detect environment

* Tell people about the keyboard shortcut for copying

* Convert omitted delegate parameter types using symbol - fixes icsharpcode#560

* Make dot net core version the main named thing and fix up some warnings

* Add a helper script for installing locally

* Restore R# required dependencies

* Revert nullable test changes

* Show errors in tests

* Revert readonly span hacks

The code will only be run against .net core projects which will support them

* Tweak caching to avoid bug in msbuild workspace

* Install nuget.build.tasks to fix workspace level errors

* Recharacterize wrong behaviour (same as start of branch)

Only work in .net core at the moment

* Await file writing task

* Return same extension by default

* Re-set target path after writing

* Update readme

* Wait for the output to be written

* Set working directory in case it helps resolving dependencies

* Use latest version over 16.0 - todo: warn if <16.0 is available

* Load any assembly, and delete source files that aren't in target

* Finalize copy and delegation behaviour

* Avoid passing path to git because it's hard to know what format

* Log loader exceptions

* Give MSBuild locator first go at resolving depenencies + allow others

* Don't copy binaries/caches

* Check happy path

* Tell users when we're ignoring their ancient software

* Only limit git diff lines

* Write exception message last so user sees it in console

* Don't need a stack trace for validation errors that the user can fix

* Avoid huge diffs and issues for non git users

* Bump version to 8.1.0

* Remove appveyor.yml

* Show help on debug install

* Tidy up output when git is missing

* Async test names to avoid warnings

* Fixup most warnings/info items

* Remove async suffix

* Half package size

Turns out they don't need to be content if they're marked as packed. When marked as content it gets included two extra times, and the zip format doesn't seem to compress that well

* Move readme and add design notes

* Add some future notes

* Update README.md

* Remove pretty unused code

* dlls are binaries

* Hack to include dataflow dll for 2017

* Stop binding assembly versions at all, and add version info

* 8.1.1

* Update README.md

* Update bug_report.md

* Deal with array type symbols - fixes icsharpcode#559

* Fix test input compilation

* Parenthesize all binary expression - fixes icsharpcode#565

Simplifier will deal with ones that weren't needed

* Fix NuGet name

* Converting ForEach loop: avoid duplicate variable compilation issue

Fixes icsharpcode#558

* Neaten up case when variable is only used within loop

* Use var except when casting

* Improvements to for loop with missing semantic info - fixes icsharpcode#482

* Loop over enum

* Split byref tests into own file

* Ref improvements

* Lots of WIP for generating a local function

* Rename and add xml doc

* Manually constructed test case

* Widen the hoisting concept

* Create local function (a bit eagerly and with a static name)

* Less eagerly extract local function

* Rename after

* Convert if parts in expected order

* Handle properties and missing semantic info

* Handle other arg types

* Handle type mismatches, constants, instance expressions

* Release notes

* Handle array element references

* Pull out an extra temp for element access expressions

* Add test for object list

* Readability tweaks

* Split out, simplify and neaten the output

* Extract event tests into own class

* Extract property member tests into own class

* Extract operator member tests to own class

* Use stack so nested types get correct initializers

* Tidyups

* Add as constructor initializer

* Deal with initializers not in the part where constructor is created

Fixes icsharpcode#281

* Split arrays with different ranks

Part of icsharpcode#544

* Handle MidAssignmentStatement

Part of icsharpcode#544

* Convert array type when there's an initializer

Part of icsharpcode#544

* Tidy up string comparison - fixes icsharpcode#500

* Update changelog

* Update changelog

* Initial copy

* Pull in what's needed to get this building in its current form

* Move in existing mygroup functionality

* Move existing exponentiation logic

* Move existing like operator

* Fix race condition in GetExitCodeAsync().

After `WaitForExitAsync`, the git process has written all its output to the pipes and terminated.
However, it's possible that CodeConverter process has not yet read the data from the pipe, or that `OutputDataReceived` event is still executing after `GetExitCodeAsync()` returns.

This can cause an `ObjectDisposedException` if the caller manages to dispose the `StringWriter` before the data is read from the pipe.

The `OutputDataReceived` event is called once with `e.Data == null` to signify the end-of-output. Waiting for that prevents the race condition.

* Introduce KnownMethod to save inlining 1000s of lines of hardcoding
