Server Application .net OR VC++

Hello there,

I am currently working in .net. Now i need to know that in order to
build a server/client architecture which one is more suitable Vc++ or
..net. There is a server in our company that has been build over vc++,
now we are looking for any chances of shifting it to .net. BTW speed of
delievering messages and other networking efficiency issues are very
important. So, cud anyone give me any advice on it, or tell me
performance comparison of vc++ or .net,or tell me any link where i can
find it.

Thanks in advance..
Cheers.......

Bye

..Net excels in creating distributed components such as found in
client-server apps. It's certainly easier than doing them in C++.

Well, the obvious question is "how fast does it need to be?" Assuming the
client and server are seperated by a network, the network lag will likely
swamp any differences in processing speed. If you can define how fast it
needs to be, then profile a .Net prototype. If it meets your targets, go for
it.

IHMO, C# is better than C++.
But since VC++ compiles to native code, and C# to MSIL,
you will loose performance migrating to C#.

Thanks for reply,

how fast it be?
I'm not really sure by this quest, anyway i try to explain

It's a real time system, in which thousands of messages can go through
the nerwork, and any sort of delay can be troublesome.

And i also want to know that
which is better(in the same cleint/server scenario),

having a backend of vc++ and front end .net, or
having a every thing in .net

i'm a .net programmer and wud love to find sum way of having it all in
..net without
problems of speed issues,because i believe that .net is not just about
a toolbox and drag drop

Cheers...

Thanks For REply,

If i'l loose performance than how can C# is better than C++
Considering my scenario of client/server

There will always be some delay. Any project where performance is critical
should have a benchmark specified right at the start, otherwise you end up
doing blue sky optimisation.

You know that Windows isn't a real time OS though, right?

As a programming languge, C# is better.
Plus, as Tim mentioned, the dot net framework is designed
to make distributed applications more easy to implement.

Thanks Again For Reply,

I think i'm not being very clear

Man i only want to know that out of the 2 options

1)having a backend of vc++ and front end .net, or
2)having a every thing in .net

in which one will the server take more time ro process a request from a
client?

and if u(Tim Haughton) or anyone know about any web links or any
paper(not very long)
which have some performance comparisons between .net and vc++
(regarding my scenario
of client/server), then plz let me know...

And BTW(Tim Haughton),

"You know that Windows isn't a real time OS though, right? "

THANKS MAN FOR "OPENING MY EYES", I REALLY DID'NT KNEW THAT...

Native C++ is faster than C#. Therefore any component written in C++ will
take less time to process a request than the equivalent component in C#.
