What is the CLR

Answer Posted / kirti

CLR = Common Language Runtime. The CLR is a set of standard resources that (in theory) any .NET program can take advantage of, regardless of programming language. Robert Schmidt (Microsoft) lists the following CLR resources in his MSDN PDC# article:

Object-oriented programming model (inheritance, polymorphism, exception handling, garbage collection)

Security model

Type system

All .NET base classes

Many .NET framework classes

Development, debugging, and profiling tools

Execution and code management

IL-to-native translators and optimizers

What this means is that in the .NET world, different programming languages will be more equal in capability than they have ever been before, although clearly not all languages will support all CLR services.
