There are no such languages as C#.NET or C++. There are C#, C++ and C++/CLI.

So, what do you mean "support of .NET C++ has"? there is no such thing; only C++/CLI has support of .NET. There is one unique feature of C++/CLI compared to other .NET high-level languages: value semantics for reference type; thanks to this feature, the variable of reference types could be true stack variables with no part of memory used on heap; in other languages this is impossible.

Note: C++/CLI had a predecessor called "Managed C++", now defunct and not supported any more.

As to different kinds of "syntactic sugar", C# (and some derivative languages such as Spec#) is more powerful and elegant.

There is no possibility to discuss the difference between languages in further detail here. If you want to know all, simply take the language manuals and spend couple or more days to read them all through — it would be very useful for you, by the way.

Solution 1

1. I don't get this question. Managed C++ has same powers as C# since both use same framework.
2. There is nothing called C#.Net.

C++.net does not exist either. It's like you stated in the first question managed C++.

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 25-Jul-11 2:59am

For your information, managed C++ does not exist anymore. Please see my answer.

Is there any concept of managed C++ in VC 6.0,Visual studio 2005,2008,2010.
Is there any concept of .net in VC 6.0?

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 25-Jul-11 2:58am

No, no, no. Managed C++ is deprecated, you could use it in VS 2005, if I'm not much mistaken.
No .NET in VC 6.0.

I am not a C++ developer so cannot help much here. This[^] should help though.

#1 is not quite accurate. Using same framework is not the end of story. C++/CLI has at least one fundamental and unique feature. Also, there is not such language as Managed C++ anymore -- it's C++/CLI.

Please see my answer.
