Common Language Runtime
The
Common Language Runtime
(
CLR
), the
virtual machine
component of
Microsoft's
.NET framework
, manages the execution of .NET programs. A process known as
just-in-time compilation
converts compiled code into machine instructions which the computer's
CPU
then executes. The CLR provides additional services including
memory management
,
type safety
,
exception handling
,
garbage collection
, security and
thread management
. All programs written for the .NET framework, regardless of
programming language
, are executed by the CLR. All versions of the .NET framework include CLR.
