C++/CLI was originally envisioned as a high-level assembler for the .NET runtime, much like C is often considered a high-level assembler for native code generation. That original vision even included the ability to directly mix IL with C++ code, mostly eliminating the need for the IL assembler ilasm.

As the design of C++/CLI...
