    Hi, I'm going to start learning C++/CLI after the next 2 weeks. As a beginner thought to myself I need to be fammilier with COM before starting:confused:. But learning COM will take a long time:zzz: (I think). Could some one guide me please: Is it better to learn (basic) COM before .Net CLI, or there is no need? //This is not a signature while (I'm_alive) {    printf("I Love Programming"); }

      Depending on your goal of learning C++/CLI. You can think of C++/CLI as a language/technology just like C# - which means you don't have to learn COM to be able to write meaningful applications. However, in many cases, the reason people learn C++/CLI is to cross between the native and managed worlds... So, this means that the user need to understand their native code base and what technologies it is relying on to make the decision on what to learn... So, I think you won't 'have to' to learn COM unless you have some native C++ code that relies on COM... And for most native applications this is the case... The "Pro Visual C++/CLI and the .NET 2.0 Platform" book by Fraser and published by Apress is a good start... gmileka

          Thanks alot.:) So, I think it's better to start with CLI now and forget COM unless it was needed. //This is not a signature while (I'm_alive) {    printf("I Love Programming"); }

            Hi Nishant and thanks. I already read 'A first look at C++/CLI' (forgot to vote then) and gave a 5 now (after 2 years!) As a newbie I should say your articles are great alone, but together, well I need a more essential starter! Some thing to start with .net basics and it's usages for a c++ developers, benefits and how to impelements, all together. I think I need to read a book. And, It's funny, you wrote most of the articles in C++/CLI. Author Nishant Sivakumar and I'm still scrolling ...:-D //This is not a signature while (I'm_alive) {    printf("I Love Programming"); }
