Is it possible to use CIL of AX classes to create AX in C# without using reflection?

I am working on the task where I am moving a lot of variables (100 000+) from C# to AX. Everything I tried yet fail on performance. (Calling C# in X++, Receiving C# array in X++, calling static method in C# trought recursion, Creating X++ object in C# trough reflection - business connector, receiving string from C# and parsing it in X++, receiving string and parsing it in X++ using C# call)

I need to find some trick how to fast transfer those variables or how to make some X++ data-storing object in C#

One thing that comes to my mind is creating X++ object directly in C# suing CIL call in C#. Did anyone tried this? Will it be fast?

It should be possible the classes in AX are translated to CIL and http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3328901/how-to-insert-cil-code-to-c-sharp

I already gave you the answer in your previous thread. Don't run your X++ code directly; generate CIL from it and run the logic in CIL. Then the whole solution will run in CLR (without switching between AX runtime and CLR) and CLR types will be called directly. For CLR, CIL generated from X++ and CIL generated from C# are indistinguishable.

Haven't you ever heard of the out-of-the-box feature in AX 2012 generating CIL from X++?
