Jedhi Posted October 8, 2003 Posted October 8, 2003 What exactly is the difference if you make a MFC Application or a Windows Forms Application. I mean they both give you a window / Dialog ?? Quote
*Experts* mutant Posted October 8, 2003 *Experts* Posted October 8, 2003 MFC and Window Forms are two different technologies. Both for working with user interface but different. Windows Forms projects are projects for .NET Framework, because Windows Forms is part of it. Quote
Jedhi Posted October 8, 2003 Author Posted October 8, 2003 You mean that MFC Application is not part of .NET ? Is MFC Application only added to .NET to adapt MFC users to use .NET or what ? Quote
Administrators PlausiblyDamp Posted October 8, 2003 Administrators Posted October 8, 2003 MFC Applications are not .Net applications and do not use the .Net framework. However a .Net application can link to the MFC libraries - however this means you are potentially coding against two class libraries with overlapping areas of functionality.

Jedhi Posted October 8, 2003 Author Posted October 8, 2003 Is C++ Windows Form Application managed C++ ? Quote
*Experts* mutant Posted October 8, 2003 *Experts* Posted October 8, 2003 Yes it is, Managed C++ refers to writing C++ application using the .NET Framework. Quote
Jedhi Posted October 8, 2003 Author Posted October 8, 2003 So If I make a class library in C++ (I suppose it is ANSI-C), then I might get some problems in making a Windows Form that use managed C++, right ? Quote

Why would you get trouble? You didnt say what you would do to combine them or anything like that, without that I dont know what to say :). Quote
Jedhi Posted October 9, 2003 Author Posted October 9, 2003 If I make a dll making the class library in C++ (I guess this is written in ANSI C++), and the make the GUI stuff Application as a Windows Form Application where I make a dllImport. Would there be any problem in that ? Quote
Jedhi Posted October 15, 2003 Author Posted October 15, 2003 C# and C++ are totally different languages. C++.NET is more like the original C++ in syntax and concept - you #include files and there are pointers, references and all of that stuff. In C#, it is more like Java. There are no pointers, files do not need to be #included and it is really more like VB.NET with Java syntax. Quote
