Adam on Compiling MSIL

Adam White, a friend of mine from Toronto, read my Introduction to MSIL series and noticed that I neglected to provide any information on how to actually compile all the IL that I wrote about. I figured it just wasn’t all that interesting, but if you have read my series and need a bit of help getting some of the examples to run, you may want to check out Adam’s post where he provides some helpful information.

Keep in mind that some of my samples assume version 2.0 of the .NET Framework so be sure to use the 2.0 version of ILASM.

Another useful tool when working with IL directly is the CLR Debugger which allows you to step through IL line by line. Be sure to specify the /debug option with ILASM to include debug information if you wish to use the debugger.
