.NET中框架代码中的CodeAccessPermission

Question

If you use reflector to, for example, look at the implementation of the OnMouseEnter method of ButtonBase, it calls IntSecurity.AllWindows.Assert before showing a ToolTip control.

Why?

Answer 1

Calling Assert instructs the runtime to bypass particular security checks. This increases performance and allows underprivileged code to call methods with CAS permission requirements.
