You are quite allright. why is it so? In C you just blindly on the address and hope it works. In .NET the JIT (Just In Time compiler) will compile the method on first call (i.e. transform it from MSIL to machine language), doing so it will make sure all calls are valid, hence it needs to check that all method call are reachable and with the right signature, i.e. it needs to load the DLL and check a few things such as: the dll exist, the version is right, the target methods exist, with the right signature, etc... Otherwise the method will be deemed invalid and an exception will be thrown
