PDC: COM InterOP new feature: Type equivalency/No Pia

On the PDC, Misha shneerson and Andrew Whitechapel's session: under the hood: advances in. net Type System. the new feature of InterOP in net 4.0: Type equivalency, which we call no PIA (primary InterOP assembly) internally ). This feature was jointly completed by the VB/C #/InterOP team. It can be said that it was one of the greatest improvements of CLR InterOP in. Net 4.0. In the following blogs, I will introduce why we want to use this feature, how it is used, how it works, and so on. If I have time, I will also consider making a webcast.
