How to get the information like classes inside a dll file?

I have a .net framework dll file, and it has some classes.

I want to use powershell to get all the classes' name inside the .dll file, how can I do?

Another a way: import the DLL with Import-Module and call assembly's GetTypes(). Like so,

import-module '<your_path>\Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.dll'
$smo = ([appdomain]::CurrentDomain.GetAssemblies()) | 
    where {$_.modules.name.contains('SqlServer')}
$smo.gettypes() | where {$_.isPublic -and $_.isClass}

I think you can do:

$Assembly = [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFrom('c:\temp\file.dll')
$Assembly.DefinedTypes
$Assembly.GetExportedTypes()
$Assembly.GetLoadedModules()
