convert delegates to lambdas

• 
  For a simple example like
  

              Func<int, int> xx =
                  delegate(int x)
                      {
                          return x*3;
                      };
  

  
  if the View/Options/Disassembler/Optimization is set to .NET 2.0, you see the code as a delegate, but if you set it to .NET 3
  .5 you see it as a lambda
  

      Func<int, int> xx = x => x * 3;

  Thats strange, i have it set to 4.0 and all i can see are delegates. What gives?

  You're found a bug, which affects assemblies compiled against the .NET 4 platform.
  
  The code that decompiles a delegate as a lambda expression, has a guard which checks that the assembly containing the type references System.Query or System.Core.
  
  Hence the following decompiles to a lambda expression
  

          static void Main(string[] args)
          {
              Type foo = typeof (System.Linq.Enumerable);
  
              Func<int, int> xx =
                delegate(int x)
                {
                    return x * 3;
                };
          }
  

  
  but commenting out the typeof line causes Reflector to always decompile to a delegate (as the assembly no longers references out of the assemblies mentioned above).
  
  I've logged this as RP-760.

  This has now been fixed. The fix will be in the next EAP release.
