/CLRHEADER

Display CLR-specific information.

Syntax

/CLRHEADER file

Arguments

file
An image file built with /clr.

Remarks

/CLRHEADER displays information about the .NET headers used in any managed program. The output shows the ___location and size, in bytes, of the .NET header and sections in the header.

Only the /HEADERS DUMPBIN option is available for use on files produced with the /GL compiler option.

When /CLRHEADER is used on a file that was compiled with /clr, there will be a clr Header: section in the dumpbin output. The value of flags indicates which /clr option was used:

  • 0 -- /clr (image may contain native code).

You can also programmatically check if an image was built for the common language runtime. For more information, see How to: Determine if an Image is Native or CLR.

The /clr:pure and /clr:safe compiler options are deprecated in Visual Studio 2015 and unsupported in Visual Studio 2017 and later. Code that must be "pure" or "safe" should be ported to C#.
