Best Answer

The CLR in the .NET framework is the Common Language Runtime. Basically, it's an intermediate step between the .NET languages' source code and native machine code. When you compile something in VB or in C#, it'll be translated into CIL (Common Intermediate Language) code. Later on when you run your program, the CIL code will be compiled into native code on-the-fly.

Why the .net is platform dependent?

Ya .Net is platform independent as well as dependent.Once the code is written , it is then compiled into MSIL (Microsoft Intermediate Language) which is independent of platform, here the CLR (Common Language Runtime) comes into picture and it consists of JIT(Just In Time)compiler which is going to convert the MSIL code into platform/device specific code. So We have CLR for Windows and CLR for Linux. Here its dependent of the type of machine its running on. So its Dependent.


What does app domain mean?

The CLR can allow the multiple .Net applications to be run in a single AppDomain. The CLR isolates each application domain from all other application domains and prevents the configuration, security, or stability of a running .NET applications from affecting other applications.An AppDomain can be destroyed without effecting the other Appdomains in the process.


Does all the .net app domains share the same CLR instance or is it that each .net app domain gets its own copy of CLR?

There is only one copy of the CLR in memory as the main part resides in MSCoree.dll. Once it is loaded then it'll get mapped to other appdomains or other programs which are currently running. For each instance it will not load a separate copy of Mscoree.dll and that why is it is know as a domain neutral assebly since it can be shared among all appdomains


What is the MSIL and why is it important to C sharp?

In .NET all the lanuages use a runtime compiler known as CLR (Common Language Runtime). All the languages wishing to target CLR need to comply with CTS or Common Type System. CLR compiles the code written in .NET based languages to IL code or Intermediary Language or MSIL. MSIL is a set of instructions that can be compiled into native mahcine level code as a second and final step of compilation. See related links.
