Help in choosing type of project closer to C.

[drattansingh]

Hi guys. I'm presently doing some programming in C using DevC++ compiler. however im also trying to do the equivalent in microsoft C++ visual studio 2008 and im a little confused as to the type of project to create. what im doing in C is nothing like a window application, but rather a console application that could run from the command prompt. When i try to create a console application in VS 2008 c++, im seeign two options: win32 or clr console application.

What is the difference between these two and which one is closer to C (DevC++) so my programs would run without any modifications.

i have vs2005, and go to File > New Project. expand Other Languages > Visual C++ > Win32 and select Win32 Console Application. not sure how different 2008 is..

Probably simpler to create an empty project and add the files manually.
