A look at the internals of 'boxing' in the CLR

Read Original

This technical deep-dive explores the internal mechanisms of 'boxing' in the .NET Common Language Runtime (CLR). It examines how the runtime creates boxed types for structs, the corresponding IL instructions (box and unbox.any), and how the Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler handles these operations with optimized assembly code, as mandated by the ECMA-335 specification.
