TypeForwardedTo Attribute

It’s the little things that make working with .NET fun. Especially the sometimes not so useful documentation or classes you never knew existed. I was surprised  to discover that Microsoft has a TypeForwardedTo attribute to indicate that a type has moved from one assembly to a new assembly.

Surprisingly it's actually mentioned in the 70-536 self-paced training kit (it's not in the exam though).

Haha, Erno already notified me of that fact. I have completed MCTS web + windows + distributed and I never heard of it before ;P

On a sidenote: I hope to never see this construction in any assembly. It's the kind of voodoo that no developer should ever want.
