What is MSIL, IL, CTS?..

Answer / vaidyanathan r

MSIL and IL are one and the same. This is a intermediate
language used to convert the source code to Portable
Executable(PE) file(otherwise called assemblies) during
compilation.This PE file is machine independent.

CTS is the set of Types(Framework Classes) commonly
supported by all of the .NET languages to achieve the
language interoperability.

What is MSIL, IL, CTS?..

Answer / uniquedurrani

MSIL or IL both are same things. MSIL is just similar to
Java's Bytecode. Both MSIL nd Bytecode are the Intermediate
Code, generated by the compiler, which is a platform
independent code. this code has no concern with Operating
System. its simply Platform independent code. which is then
executed by the JIT Compiler.

What is MSIL, IL, CTS?..

Answer / vaibhav

CTS is a common type system.
It is used in order that two languages communicate smoothly.
Different data types supported by different languages in .net
are converted into System.int32which is datatype of CTS.

What is MSIL, IL, CTS?..

Answer / sarat3884

MSIL :An intermediate language generated by compiler is
called MSIL. All .Net assemblies are represented in MSIL.
The main Advantage of using MSIL is it provides equal
performance for multiple language programming, as code is
compiled to native code.
Example: Performance of application developed in C# is
similar to VB.net or any other .Net compliant language that
is because of MSIL.

Common Type System CTS :A fundamental part of the .NET
Framework's Common Language Runtime (CLR), the CTS
specifies no particular syntax or keywords, but instead
defines a common set of types that can be used with many
different language syntaxes.

What is MSIL, IL, CTS?..

Answer / ashish kumar gupta

MSIL means Microsoft Intermediate Language or CIL (common Intermediate Language).All source code written in any .NET SUPPORTIVE LANGUAGE (c#,VB.net,etc)When compile convert into MSil
Then MSIL converts the source code into intermediate language & then machine code by JIT(Just In Time ) Compiler.

IT is similar as java Byte code with the help of it we can run any program at any plateform by using CLR.

are compiled. It contains instructions for loading, storing
initializing,
and calling methods on objects.

What is MSIL, IL, CTS?..

Answer / mahesh kotekar

MSIL stands for Microsoft Intermediate Language in short
MSIL or IL(Intermediate Language). When you compile a
program the CLR will compile the code into MSIL code. which
will then be included in the assembly[exe/dll]. When you run
the program in client place. The clr will manage to convert
the MSIL into machine language by a process called Jitting.

CTS =? Common Type Specifications. A set of specifications
defined by the dotnet framework. Every type in dotnet should
comploy with CTS specifications. For example
int16,int32,int64 in C# belongs to dotnet type Int and
integers in VB.net is asso same as dotnet type Int. This
will help in Interlanguage Interoperation :) Correct me if
am wrong!!!!
