New Stand-alone application
-
Hi, I am planning to create a new application, it is targeted to windows platform, it contains basic user controls and have a duplex communication with COM port (virtual COM port). I am planning to use Visual C++ for it. But I am not sure what IDE I should use. Would Visual Studio C++ Express Edition 2008 be good? Should I use .NET, Is there any option not to use .NET Frame work. Thanks a lot in advance.

Visual C++ express edition should be enough for your purpose. If you create a Win32 application then .Net framework will not be available. -Saurabh

Ok, thanks a lot, I have a little concern about the license as well, can I use this application for commercial purpose also... is there a way once I develop in Express edition or the 90 days evaluation copy (I have this) then I can buy the license for commercial purpose.

As far as I know you can use express editions to develop commercial application. -Saurabh
