Description
Removes
GenericsInstances
class that was solely used forngen
purposes inNetFX
to trigger generation for those generic types that were otherwise only defined on interfaces inWindowsBase
(see comment).I have done a test with CrossGen2 (R2R) and this wasn't being jitted. So imho it is safe to say it has outlived its purpose.
Using the output of
DOTNET_JitDisasmSummary=1
; while without publishing as R2R all those things were.Customer Impact
Decreased assemblies size, cleaner codebase for developers.
Regression
No.
Testing
Local build, app run (more in description).
Risk
Don't think there's any.
