    Will there be a C++.net?

    I am considering learning to use Visual C++ after learning to use Visual Basic.net MY Visual studio includes C++ 6.0, but I have only used VB 6.0

    If there is going to be a similar upgrade from C++ to C++.net or whatever, it seems worthwhile to wait.

    BTW: VB.net seems to have some significant improvements, but seems to have dropped a few nice features (like fixed length strings). Some of the syntax and other changes seem annoying with little or no gain in utility.
    Live long & prosper.

    C++.NET is part of VS 2005.

    Also, this should be in General Developer Forum, not Codebank

    Have you looked at C# in the .NET framework?

    Yup, but in 2005 it is more .NET than 2003, or something...

    It didn't. It was just Visual Studio .NET and I don't even remember what was in it. I think it was around 2001, but I couldn't swear to that.

    '02 I think.

    I only made the comment because I read that in .NET 2005 C++ becomes a full .NET language. However the article may have been a load of trash, I don't know.

    Re: Will there be a C++.net?

    So is there gonna be a C++ net? I though C# was just the next step in evolution for Visual C++.

    Re: Will there be a C++.net?

    There will always be a non-.NET C++, because managed code is slower and larger. I'm not sure how much you will gain with a true C++.NET over either C# or VB.NET.
