    managed code and managed data

    I am reading CLR via C#.

    The author says

    Microsoft's C#, Visual Basic, JScript, J#, and the IL Assembler always produce modules that
    contain managed code (IL) and managed data (garbage-collected data types). End users must
    have the CLR (presently shipping as part of the .NET Framework) installed on their machine
    in order to execute any modules that contain managed code and/or managed data in the same
    way that they must have the Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) library or Visual Basic DLLs
    installed to run MFC or Visual Basic 6 applications.


    What's the difference between managed code and managed data?

    Does he want to say that the code that comprises the types(class,int erface etc) is managed code, so the resulting UDT is managed data ?

    Also he says
    The JITCompiler function then searches the defining assembly's meta-
    data for the called method's IL

    Searches metadata for the IL ?
