HOWTO Make Visual Studio 2003 build .NET 2.0 apps
Please help,
Can Visual Studio 2003 build .NET 2.0 apps? And if so how?
As a test to ensure that it can be done, I want to be able to compile and
use the .NET 2.0 functionality for Marshal.GetDele gateForFunction Pointer.

No. Period. You have to use VS 2005 for .NET 2.0 apps.
Marc
Try using SharpDevelop ( http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/)
instead... as an open source project they are not out to make a buck by
forcing you to upgrade your development tools just to test out
functionality in the latest .NET libraries.
Thanks for reply,
I do have the .NET 2.0 SDK, is there anyway I can use it to build the .NET
2.0 apps?
Marc, I'm sorry, but one can do it without VS-2005. The .NET 2.0 SDK comes
with CSC.EXE and even MSBuild.exe, which with Microsoft's tech support I was
able to compile my app (my .CS file) and build my app. Granted, this is a FAR
cry from being able to build\debug\dep loy as it would have been with VS, at
least I can setup a Pre-Build\Post-Build step to compile my apps in VS-2003.
Right, but that wasn't your question. You asked if you could make
VS.NET 2003 build .NET 2.0 apps, and the answer is definitely no on that
front.
The SDK and VS.NET are two separate things. And yes, you can build
things with the SDK, you don't need the IDE. The IDE just makes things
easier (which I am sure you know already).

Yes you can.
- set in the project properties that you don't want to compile mscorlib
inside the assembly. (compiler flag /nostdlib[+|-] )
- remove all system.* references from the project
- now add new assemblies from the .NET 2.0 SDK to your project for
system. etc.
- compile your project.
It might not work for 100% but often will. This is also the way you
can build .NET 1.0 assemblies from vs.net 2003. These also don't always
work, but often will.
Of course, best way to do this is to build on the command line, using
nmake or msbuild or nant.

Firstly, to get msvcrt.lib, install the .NET framework SDK. The version of

There are some other things that might be usefull (e.g. the debug version
of msvcrt.lib) but msvcrt.lib is the most usefull thing.
Secondly, install the latest version of the Microsoft Platform SDK.
The "64-bit" compiler will provide versions of undname.exe, nmake.exe,...

I am a veteran C/C++ programmer (Unix background) and I want to get to

I have legacy C/C++ code that I want to use in my application. However,
I'm not sure how to call my native C++ functions from my C++ DLLs. The
confusion is this: I currently have Visual Studio 2003 it is not clear
whether I should use managed extensions or C++/Interop?

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
