Question

Does VB.NET have anything similar to Java’s JDK source code? When I used to work in Eclipse, I could right click and view the generated code, or “look under-the-hood” so to speak. I found this feature very helpful in understanding what was happening behind the scenes, and it helped me to write better, more simplified code.
I have so far been working with Visual Studio 2010’s Object Browser, and I have also been looking at the generated designer files, but these often do not drill down far enough.

The best program to do this is called .NET Reflector and you can download it from here: http://www.red-gate.com/products/reflector/

It lets you see executables and DLL’s under the hood
