MC++?
-
I just have to know what MC++ is good for? :omg: I mean... I can use the .NET classes in my Visual C++ .NET apps if I use MC++. But why is it god for? I want to learn it because the use of .NET classes in VC++.NET and asking you about a book. Is "Visual C++ .NET Step by Step" a good book about MC++? I think I've heard that before..... HELP NOW!! ps. this is my first message in the MC++ forum and I can bet one dollar about Nish will answer me! :-D (Nish, ANSWER!!!) Rickard Andersson@Suza Computing C# and C++ programmer from SWEDEN! UIN: 50302279 E-Mail: nikado@pc.nu Speciality: I love C# and C++!

You can write .NET wrappers for unmanaged functions and classes. COM Interop is more efficient in MC++ than in C# because you can use IJW instead of P/Invoke. You can use ATL, WTL, MFC etc. from your MC++ apps. I guess there are other reasons too, but these are what come to mind now! Nish

Let's not forget the garbage collection. You can stop using "delete" and creating destructors. No more memory leaks or those horrible crashes in memory freed twice! Al:omg: :omg:

MC++ allows legacy C++ code to be called from .NET applications and for this it is very good. The feeling of calling managed C++ code from a C# application is a wonderous one. The book Visual C++.NET Step by Step is a very good book and it will help you realise why we have MC++ and the power the it holds. I highly recommend it. Michael :-)

From what I've heard people say about that book, it's more of an MFC book I'd say with a few chapters dedicated to MC++ Nish

It does a bit of ATL but only the new Server stuff. A very good book for a C++ programmer wanting to know how they can use their knowledge under .NET Michael :-)

Is MC++ worth learning if I've already started learning C# and do not have any Unmanged code that I need to keep?:confused: I also need some ideas of C++ API's or other programming languages(non .NET) that I could learn. The reason im asking this is becuase I think I need a break from .NET and MFC for a little while.

A lot of things just dont work for MC++ the same way it does for C#. So unless you wanna hand code everything stick to C#. Specially since you don't wanna do any unmanaged stuff! brian1415 wrote: also need some ideas of C++ API's or other programming languages(non .NET) that I could learn.

Thanks nish, I know this is the wrong forum for this question but I thought I might as well continue with this thread. What exactly is ATL I know it deals with servers or somthing...:confused:
