A signature is applicable if all its parameters are either optional or have exactly one corresponding argument (by name or position) in the call which is convertible to the parameter type.Betterness rules on conversions are only applied for arguments that are explicitly given – omitted optional arguments are ignored for betterness purposes.If two signatures are equally good, one that does not omit optional parameters is preferred.

Dynamic importCompiling without PIAsOmitting ref

Some COM interfaces are not yet availableIndexed propertiesDefault propertiesNOTE: these will only be used for dynamically typed objects. C# static objects will not support them.

Supported for interface and delegate types“Statically checked definition-site variance”Value types are always invariant

IEnumerable<int> is not IEnumerable<object>Similar to existing rules for arrays

ref and out parameters need invariant type
