How to detemine (by code) the assembly corflags?

I need to write a CorFlags-like application. If I have a path to assembly file, how to I read its CorFlags?

I specifically need to know if the assembly is An开发者_StackOverflowy-CPU or x86 only

I want to avoid loading the assembly using reflection because I need to scan many files.

Have a look at this link, it describes a similar situation to your query. The accepted answer describes how you can use reflection and Module.GetPEKind. This might help you.

Edit: A bit late, but here's a example:

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
    using System.Reflection;

    public class Program
    {
        public static void Main()
        {
            Assembly a = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();

            PortableExecutableKinds peKind;
            ImageFileMachine machine;

            a.ManifestModule.GetPEKind(out peKind, out machine);
        }
    }
}

System.Reflection.Assembly has a whole bunch of things to help you in this.

var asmbly = Assembly.ReflectionOnlyLoad("filename");
var PeFlags = asmbly.ManifestModule.GetPEKind();
//PeFlags is effectively CorFlags.
