        <import namespace="System" />
        <import namespace="System.Reflection" />
        <import namespace="System.EnterpriseServices" />
        <import namespace="System.Runtime.InteropServices" />
    </imports>
    <attributes>
        <attribute type="ComVisibleAttribute" value="false" />
        <attribute type="CLSCompliantAttribute" value="true" />
        <attribute type="AssemblyVersionAttribute" value="1.0.0.0" />
        <attribute type="AssemblyTitleAttribute" value="My fun assembly" />
        <attribute type="AssemblyDescriptionAttribute" value="More fun than a barrel of monkeys" />
        <attribute type="AssemblyCopyrightAttribute" value="Copyright (c) 2002, Monkeyboy, Inc." />
        <attribute type="ApplicationNameAttribute" value="FunAssembly" />
    </attributes>
    <references>
        <include name="System.EnterpriseServices.dll" />
    </references>
</asminfo>

Create a C# AssemblyInfo file containing an attribute with multiple named properties by setting the asis attribute on the AssemblyAttribute element to true.

<asminfo output="AssemblyInfo.cs" language="CSharp">
    <imports>
        <import namespace="log4net.Config" />
    </imports>
    <attributes>
        <attribute type="DOMConfiguratorAttribute" value="ConfigFile=&quot;config.log4net&quot;,Watch=true" asis="true" />
    </attributes>
    <references>
        <include name="log4net.dll" />
    </references>
</asminfo>
