Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Common Language Infrastructure (CLI) is a multiple language runtime system, first implemented as the .NET Common Language Runtime (CLR). In March, 2002 Microsoft released the Shared Source CLI implementation (aka Rotor)for general educational use. The CLI technology can be used to address a spectrum of software design and development barriers that cut across compilers, runtime systems, and operating systems. This book focuses on the parts of the technology that are directly related to Distributed Virtual Machine technology. It covers assembly architecture, assembly loading, downloading, the execution engine, security, CLI interobject communication (remoting), and more. This book is available entirely online at http://aw-bc.com/nutt/cli for professor evaluation and classroom use, and for general readers interested in the Rotor CLI.
