    Little differences

    General C++ is typically refering to ANSI C++ which is the traditional flavor of C++. However, when people talk about Miscrosoft C++ they are referring to MFC(Microsoft Foundation Classes). This is a large set of C++ classes that allow easier interaction with the WIN32 API. They work together just the same rules of libraries aplies at compile and run time.

    Actually if I'm referring to Microsoft C++ I refer to things like the __inline and __forceinline keywords or __declspec. All of those extensions.

    I refer to MFC as MFC. It's shorter than Microsoft C++ and it's unambigous.

    But what's the point in your post? Misfired reply?
