Compiler & Interpreter - .NET Framework
Hi,
I know that when you use "csc" or "vbc", the compiler will generate MSIL. Now JIT will translate that MSIL into 1's and 0's. Now my question is : So we have two compilations ? Please explain me little bit.
Thanks

MSIL is an intermediate compilation which is platform independent.
the JIT takes the MSIL and finishes the compilation specially for the platform on which it is running

Which one are you considering to be "interpretation?"

CodeCruiser,
One is CSC or VBC compilation, JIT is also compilation. Can you please specify:
One compilation and one interpretation
Thanks

kaufmed,
Do we agree with @emoreau ? I think so too. That is the difference between Java and .NET. Am i correct ?

I was considering JITing as interpretation because it does not convert the whole code to machine code. It converts code as and when needed.
@CodeCruiser
But it's not interpreting; it's compiling! It's just doing it on demand = )

Yes you are right :-)
I was considering CLR as an interpreter given that it converts and executes code as needed but technically speaking its not an interpreter.

.NET Programming
The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.
