ChoKamir Posted November 22, 2003 Posted November 22, 2003 Hello As you can see i'm new here, due to the fact that i was wondering what would be the best solution. I'm now a VB5 programmer and wanna start getting skills in C++. Now i my question what do all of you suggest, that use Visual C++6 or .Net. And pls tell me what you like .net(i think this will be your opinion due the the fact this is a .net forum). And if you have any links/ articles discussing the pro's and against pls tell me.

Darc Posted November 22, 2003 Posted November 22, 2003 I'd get Visual Studio C++ .NET anyways, it can do Unmanaged (6.0) applications as well as C++ .NET, plus it has a great Debugger. As for features of .NET, I personally like it because it's easier to look at, and is alot more sensical in how it works. If you like VB 5, you might wanna look into VB .NET too, it's fully OOP which is loads of fun with VB's RAD caps. Hope this helps. Quote
ChoKamir Posted November 26, 2003 Author Posted November 26, 2003 Alright thanks m8 Another question i wasn't able to find on the microsoft website. How many CD's does .NET 2003 contain and does it use the MSDN library as help file. If so i guess that is a different MSDN library than the one of VS 6. ChoKamir Quote
Optikal Posted November 26, 2003 Posted November 26, 2003 Yes VS.Net uses a new version of MSDN for its help files. And VS.Net is 5 or 6 CD's (somewhere around there anyways). You can get it on DVD also which makes things much easier. Quote
