The CLI is an ECMA standard. Unfortunately, this isn't as useful as it appears
since many of the .NET class libraries are missing from the standard. When
Java gets new APIs, they become a standard that other vendors can implement
(there are even reference implementations). This has not and most likely will
not happen with .NET.
• The System.CodeDom namespace is cool.
• Supports ValueTypes (structs) as first class citizens. "Int" is considered an
object.
• Access to native code is easy. A lot of thought has been given to the runtime
marshalling infrastructure.
When overriding virtual methods you have to explicitly state that you're overriding
with the overrides keyword.
