    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

      No, you're thinking of Tom Archer's book, Visual C++.NET Bible; Visual C++.NET Step by Step is an MC++ book. :) James Simplicity Rules!

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.

                      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:

                        I believe a good programmer uses the best tools for the job, and MC++ is a good tool. Al PS Even with the garbage collection is a good idea to manage your memory
