Hi,
I have to develop an application which involves lot of GUI. I have the
sufficient skills in both VC++ 6.0 and VC#. I have developed applications
using VC++6.0 earlier. Is it worth to develop new applications in VC#
through
which I can get advatages of garbage collection, managed code etc.,? or
Shall
I continue to develop in VC++6.0.
Can somebody break this confusion?
By,

I agree with Rodrigo.
The choice between C++ and C# is primarily about platform dependence. C# is
a .NET language, pure and simple (yes, I know it's possible to write
unmanaged C# code...), while C++ allows you to choose between .NET, MFC, Win
API, etc. So, if your target is only .NET, consider C# for its new features
and ease of use. Otherwise, C++. What I can't figure out is why you haven't
moved to VS .NET 2003 and the new VC 7.1 compiler, which is more
standards-compliant than previous versions (and just better, IMHO).
