a C# version of c++ can be created?
-
Just think on the following imagine c++ to have the c# syntax but you can create pointers an all the c++ stuff but with the c# syntax i mean without the use of the net framework. I just dont know with MS have not thought in that option, cmon lets face it c++ syntax has around 25 years old, a lot of stuff has happened since then!!!

And your point is?
Failure is not an option; it's the default selection.

I like c++ as well as c#. I think if you take all the built-ins, including the framework, out of c# you would be in roughly the same place. The actual syntax is close to the same thing, they are both "c-like". I prefer those types of languages, and that has a lot to do with them being so similar.
If it moves, compile it

I think he's asking if something like a unmanaged C# exists, so he can use it in devices where the .net framework isn't supported.
I'm brazilian and english (well, human languages in general) aren't my best skill, so, sorry by my english. (if you want we can speak in C# or VB.Net =p)

C++ 11 is the latest version of the C++ language and VC++ 2010 and more so VC++ 2011 support it to a fair degree. So you could just use that.

Yeah, it was fairly obvious what he was asking, so I was surprised Mark didn't get it.

why imagine why not just make ugly C# code http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/f58wzh21(v=vs.80).aspx[^]
That's still managed code. He wants to use C# syntax and generate native code.

Just seemed like a rant to me. It is the end of the day, or is it the beginning? I'm so confused. :)

Actually, that would suck. There are many nice things about the C# syntax, but then we'd suddenly lose templates (generics do not replace them), classes couldn't go on the stack (that will really hurt), there would be no private or protected inheritance, no friend functions/classes, half of the operators that are useful when working with pointers wouldn't exist, and I could go on for a while but maybe you get the point. On the other hand if you said "just imagine C# compiling to native code directly instead of going through MSIL", then yes, I would love that (just so long as we get to keep the nice compilation model - no linking please!). It would kill some parts of reflection, but I wouldn't mourn the loss.

C# is just a language -- if you can write a compiler to compile to a native exe for your choice of operating system, then go ahead. In theory it shouldn't require the .net (or any other) framework, but there are some features (e.g.
foreach,using) that require some underlying structure. -

I just said that c++ syntax can be improved and code wont have to be so ugly and still doing the same stuff, take the c# enums for making an example.

Even C needs a runtime library, the trick is to have the ability to statically link against only those portions used by your program. Unfortunately C# programs require bit of code - a good portion of the BCL (strings, arrays, etc.), the garbage collector, etc. Mono comes with an
mkbundletool that can create a native executable from managed code. Unfortunately the static linking option is not available for Windows. -

You can do that in C#.

You don't need to reference any .Net libraries. Though I think it'd still require the CLR. On the other hand, the CLR compiles to native code, so if it drops those files somewhere maybe you could grab them (not sure if they'd run independently, however).

But structs can go on the stack.

Not sure what you mean here. Private members do get inherited, and protected members both get inherited and can be overridden.

I'm not sure what's missing, but AFAIK, you can use pointers and do various pointerly things to them (e.g., pointer arithmetic).
