.NET plugin - bug?

[Christian Kaiser]

I wanted to test my plugin manager and wrote two codes, one for a C# plugin,
one for a C++ plugin.

The codes are appended at the end.

My problem: The C++ class is only inherited from the interface if at least
one function is implemeted in the C file. When I implement the class only in
the header file (like in the code below), ILDASM shows that the class is NOT
inheriting the interface.

Is this a bug, or a feature, of the C++ compiler? I'm new to .NET (not
Win32, which I'm pretty much used to).

Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
Version 8.0.50727.42 (RTM.050727-4200)
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 2.0.50727
