Intermediate code generated in visual studio

Question

As why Intermediate code is needed is described in Stack Overflow post ,my question is that,

Is the intermediate code saved in the solution ?

How can I view the whole IL generated ?

Reflector and the File Disassembler add-in from Denis Bauer. It actually produces source projects from assemblies, where Reflector on its own only displays the disassembled source and not Intermediate Code.

Answer 1

When you compile (such as by clicking F5) - an exe file is created in the bin folder inside your solution - that file is "written" in IL. As for how to see it - that part is covered in the "duplicate" - by using tools such as mentioned in CodeCoaster's comment above. (In ILSpy you'll have to choose IL instead of C# or VB to show you the IL.)

Answer 2

To view IL code you should use additional tools like Reflector or ILASM/ILDASM.

It's not saved, it's generated during build.
