Use reflector as library

• 
  You use to be able to ... and i'm pretty sure you still can - but when I did it back in 2007 Lutz said that it wasn't really a supported scenario.
  
  I posted a blog entry and some code about wrapping it with your own UI here:

  Yep, you can start with something like:

  Reflector.ApplicationManager m_AppManager = new Reflector.ApplicationManager(null);
  

  
  Then just don't call Run() on it if you don't want a reflector window.
  
  To get useful services, call things like:

  m_AppManager.GetService(typeof(ITranslatorManager))
  m_AppManager.GetService(typeof(ILanguageManager))
  m_AppManager.GetService(typeof(IAssemblyManager))
  m_AppManager.GetService(typeof(IAssemblyCache))
  m_AppManager.GetService(typeof(IConfigurationManager))
  

  
  Cheers,

  Here is another example of hosting reflector in your own code.

  this can be a very useful technique.
