2-Day Hands-On Training Seminar: Busy .NET Developer's Training on the Common Language Runtime (CLR)
July 29-30, 2021
9:00AM – 5:00PM (Central)
Level: Intermediate to Advanced

The Common Language Runtime (CLR) is an incredibly powerful and elegant creature that has patiently executed millions of .NET applications, application servers, and demos for almost two decades. Even then, sometimes behavior within the CLR surprises the programmers that use it, even though the behavior is documented and available. In this 2-day hands-on seminar, we will explore the CLR in depth, looking at some of the "arcana" of the CLR that separates the C# developer from the CLR guru.

Join us for this 2-Day Hands-On Training Seminar...

  • because you want to be able to debug
  • because every developer should know one layer below the layer at which they work
  • because you are just curious (and the CLR is fascinating!)
  • because .NET developers who know this stuff are just better than everybody else

Course Outline:

  • Write a simple app, slightly more complex than HelloWorld; we use that app as the backbone of how a .NET application is executed
  • The app gets compiled into bytecode: CIL
  • The app gets packaged as an assembly: Assembly format
  • CLR Runtime fires up and bootstraps into place: Invocation API
  • App gets loaded into the CLR: Assembly loading
  • Types are resolved and metadata is loaded: Reflection
  • Objects are allocated out of the GC heap: GC
  • Eventually actions "call down" to the underlying OS: P/Invoke

Attendee Laptop/Workstation Requirements:
You must provide your own computer (Windows or Mac), any laptop (Windows or macOS) from within the last three years should be sufficient hardware. You must have either .NET 5, .NET Core 3.x, or .NET Framework 4.7 or later installed; and have Visual Studio 2019 (Windows), Visual Studio Mac, Visual Studio Code, or JetBrains Rider installed and running to participate in this hands-on training.
