intermediate language CIL IL D365FO


 What is an intermediate language?



Intermediate language (IL) is an object-oriented programming language designed to be used by compilers for the .NET Framework before static or dynamic compilation to machine code. The IL is used by the .NET Framework to generate machine-independent code as the output of the compilation of the source code written in any .NET programming language.

IL is a stack-based assembly language that gets converted to bytecode during the execution of a virtual machine. It is defined by the common language infrastructure (CLI) specification. As IL is used for the automatic generation of compiled code, there is no need to learn its syntax.

This term is also known as Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) or common intermediate language (CIL).
