Is it possible to use an alias defined in one file throughout an assembly?
For eg. in Foo.cs I have
using IO = System.IO;
namespace Foo
{}
How can I use the alias “IO” in FooBar.cs
namespace Foo.Bar
{}

According to MSDN
The scope of a using directive is limited to the file in which it appears.So the answer is No. You cannot define an alias in one file and use it throughout assembly
