Hi

We currently have a very large C project developed using Visual C.

We are now in the process of converting this to .NET and Windows Forms and
Managed C++ which we want to do a bit at a time and leave untouched and
reuse, at least for now, as much existing code as possible whilst
introducing Windows Forms and .NET features.

We particularly want to host existing windows classes on windows forms and
also host windows forms on existing Windows.

We have compiled the project successfully using /clr but I cannot find much
information on integrating existing C with .NET/Windows Forms/Managed C++
either in the Microsoft Documentation or on the Internet. Most info seems to
be on VB or C# or if it is on Managed C++ doesn't mention integrating with
existing C code. I have bought 4 books on Visual C++ none of which talk
about the above.

I post specific questions on the newsgroups but can anyone point me to
anywhere on the Internet where such information exists.

Thanks

Steve

There is a book out there which is specifically meant for MFC and .Net
(C++). This will be helpful for you even if you havent used MFC in unmanaged
portion of your code. I have not personally used it but it may be helpful:
