What is CTS, CLS and CLR ?

Answer Posted / nagesh n

CLR - CTS - CLS

The .NET Framework provides a runtime environment called the
Common Language Runtime or CLR (similar to the Java Virtual
Machine or JVM in Java), which handles the execution of code
and provides useful services for the implementation of the
program.

The Common Language Runtime is the underpinning of the .NET
Framework. CLR takes care of code management at program
execution and provides various beneficial services such as
memory management, thread management, security management,
code verification, compilation, and other system services.
The managed code that targets CLR benefits from useful
features such as cross-language integration, cross-language
exception handling, versioning, enhanced security,
deployment support, and debugging.

Common Type System (CTS) describes how types are declared,
used and managed in the runtime and facilitates
cross-language integration, type safety, and high
performance code execution.

The Common Language Specification (CLS) is an agreement
among language designers and class library designers to use
a common subset of basic language features that all
languages have to follow.
