Because C compilers write out to native code. It may help to think that C is the virtual machine language (as well as its specification for the virtual machine). This concept has been extended by things like Clang, that transform C to a somewhat more generic underlying language representation (LLVM bytecode) before compiling to native code. You can ahead-of-time compile Mono code to ARM; that doesn't mean it's not defining a virtual execution environment. |
