The Weird and The Wonderful
The Weird and The Wonderful forum is a place to post Coding Horrors,
Worst Practices, and the occasional flash of brilliance.
We all come across code that simply boggles the mind. Lazy kludges, embarrasing mistakes, horrid
workarounds and developers just not quite getting it. And then somedays we come across - or write -
the truly sublime.
Post your Best, your worst, and your most interesting. But please - no
programming questions . This forum is purely for amusement and discussions on code snippets. All
actual programming questions will be removed.

|
 | Apparently some people can't even spell forum anymore let alone read a description about its purpose...

Nope not true at all. It has full control over native code too. Also, don't forget that these runtimes are written in native code.

 | Sorry, my wording could have been clearer.
[I've made a minor modification to the original post]
I know that the DEP handles *all* native code, but that's what I was getting at. The runtimes are native code but I wanted to know whether the MSIL code/ Java Bytecode is kept in... |
