I want to develop a function in C/C++ to take a large string and search for keywords - and calling this function from VB.Net.

First - I was curious what the difference is between compiling in C and C++ modes?

Second - having never written a function in C/C++ - how would I code up the parameters for passing an array of "keywords" and a large "string" of text from VB.Net (using VS 2010).

Thanks!
