Would a C++ CLI compiler be able to compile some large sets of C++ classes without modifications?
Is C++ CLI a superset of C++?
C++ runs directly as binary complied for your hardware. C++ cli is a c++ extension that is used to interface with the MS common language runtime. It complies to IL normally and is executed inside the . net runtime.
C++/CLI is variant of the C++ programming language, modified for Common Language Infrastructure.
Performance: C++ is widely used when higher level languages are not efficient. C++ code is much faster than C# code, which makes it a better solution for applications where performance is important.
gcnew is an operator, just like the new operator, except you don't need to delete anything created with it; it's garbage collected. You use gcnew for creating . Net managed types, and new for creating unmanaged types.
According to Wikipedia:
C++/CLI should be thought of as a language of its own (with a new set of keywords, for example), instead of the C++ superset-oriented Managed C++
technically no, but depending how standard the C++ code is, you'll probably be just fine. when you get into windows stuff you may run into issues. I compiled the whole game engine we use at work in C++/CLI once and it worked just fine. A colleague did the same for all of mozilla and no such luck.
