Re: Can you write code directly in CIL ???

I will second that the C++ compiler is better at optimizing IL output
than the C# compiler. However, as Willy stated, it will not always produce
verifiable code... I believe the article you were looking for is in MSDN
magazine.

But as a general statement, the C++ compiler generally has the best
optimizations (and for unmanaged code, with the new profile-guided
optimization, it's even cooler).
