thenerd Posted April 13, 2005 Posted April 13, 2005 Can Visual C++.net program do unmanaged and managed code? or does it force you to do only managed code? Quote
*Experts* mutant Posted April 13, 2005 *Experts* Posted April 13, 2005 You can create unmanaged apps. Quote
mskeel Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 You can even do traditional win32 apps and skip the .Net completely. I'm pretty sure you can even still do MFC and all that other craziness if you really wanted to... Quote

I encourage everyone to learn unmanaged c++, it'll give you insight to what you are actually doing in other languages that's hidden from you. Quote -Sean

That is excellent advice. Pointers are crucial. Then you'll realize how cool it is when you pass something by value that actually passes by value, not by reference even when you say be value becuase your passing a reference type variable by value...sound confusing? Oh it is... If only there were a const keyword in VB... (not bitter, just burned once by my previous lack of understanding of the concept of reference and value types) Quote
thenerd Posted April 15, 2005 Author Posted April 15, 2005 Actually, having just read a c++ tutorial, I vaguely understood that. Quote
