I'm new to .NET and have a basic understanding of operating systems.

I can also do some magic in Csharp, but I lack an understanding of
what's going on under the hood, with respect to how windows loads
a .NET application is loaded into memory, how is it executed,
how it interacts with the application and how I can control this
behaviour
through code.

If anyone can direct me to a resource with some introductory material
on what I just talked about, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks a lot,

Have a nice day,

Joel
 
Try perhaps (from the .NET Framework SDK)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...e/html/cpovrintroductiontonetframeworksdk.asp
and
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...n-us/cpguide/html/cpconInsideNETFramework.asp

It should give a broad overview possibly making possible to ask more
specific questions if still needed...

Generally, you could also see some kind of similarity with an OS :
- as an OS provides its services to applications, .NET provides higher level
services, including exposing underlying OS features in an object oriented
way but also providing execution specific services such as code access
security, memory management and garbage collection, versioning etc for all
..NET based languages...
 
Hello (e-mail address removed),

I'd recomend you to read some books about CLR
My favourites are "Customizing CLR" and "CLR via C#"

Do I need to read material on the Windows api or mfc to understand
the inner working of windows itself ? I'll try reading the above
mentioned
books and articles.

Thanks a lot, :)

Good Day.

If you want to understand the inner workings aka internals of windows
then you should read "Microsoft Windows Internals" by
Mark E. Russinovich and David A. Solomon
