C++/CLI in Action

C++/CLI connects standard C++ applications to the world of .NET. With

C++/CLI, a developer can take a C++ program he's been using for years and

give it a snazzy new interface using Windows Presentation Foundation. He can

make old business applications talk to new ones using Windows Communication

Foundation.

C++/CLI in Action

shows readers how to bridge the gap between their existing

C++ code and the .NET platform. C++/CLI in Action is for readers who:

* Don't want to rewrite C++ code in C# or VB.

* Have C++ expertise they you want to use with.NET.

* Only need pieces of the .NET framework, such as Windows Forms

or Web Services.

This is a focused, no-fluff book. Designed for the huge numbers of developers

who already know C++, this book starts by teaching the unique aspects of the

C++/CLI language. After a quick tour through the basics, readers work through

examples integrating standard C++ into .NET-based applications and learn to

build programs that mix C++ and .NET code for maximum performance

and efficiency.
