Using VB .Net and VC at the same time in .Net
There is only one book on Managed C++ in print today:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1893115283/qid=1028135321
It's will teach you the language, but not how to use it well. It presents
you with the language features, but does not show you how to solve problems
with them. This book makes a good reference, but you'll also need to search
the web for Managed C++ tutorials and examples.
Also, I disagree with the way this book describes ugly hacks when there are
much more elegant solutions to solve the same problems. (Eg. Marshalling
delegates into C function pointers through kernel32.dll when you could just
use gcroot<> in an unmanaged callback function).
Amazon.com shows that there are three other books not yet published.
