In his excellent book Jeffrey Richter says the Microsoft guidelines recommend operators are accompanied by a friendly public instance method that calls the operator method internally. For example the suggested CLS compliant name for operator + is Add. Does anyone know...
/1/ why the friendly method should be an instance method rather than a static method? /2/ why the C# compiler generates a static method called op_Addition for operator+ rather than the recommended instance method called Add?
