Could you help me to suggest a book for immgrating from C++ to C#, what about Accelerated C# or Illustrated C#,Pro C# 2008 and the .NET 3.5 Platform

As our team will immgrating from C++ to C#, could you help me to figure out which one is best suit for this scenario. I think a brief, short enough and cover the most useful part of the language is better.

Well, you're a little late to the party.... I think the main thing your team needs to understand, is all the ways C# looks like C++ but is not. The main one is garbage collection, and the lack of deterministic destruction. I'd look for a book that aims for these things, that is written for C++ devs, even if it's an older book. These things have not changed.

Thanks for your reply. Definitely! We should avoid the misused of such feature.

It's a real trap, expecting basic C++ stuff to work, because it looks the same.

i Will suggest the book "Applied .Net framework proggramming" written by jeffrey richter. Concept that a pure VC++ programmer should understand is about the "Type and object" fundamentals in .Net world. It's structure and how it is handled.. it is bviously a managed one and governed by CLR. And as Christian Graus said you should go through the Garbage collection fundamentals. GC normaly runs as a low priority thread. You should also keep an eye on safe and unsafe concepts.. which you will surely comethrough when you are reading GC ...
