weird, Basiclly I expose a bunch of functions through virtual functions and
other code loads it that way.
What's really weird is in my CPP file I have breakpoints set where it jumps

  As I understand things, when my unmanaged C++ code throws
an exception it is wrapped into a SEHException when it reaches
managed code. Now is there a way from the managed catch clause

I started to experiment with VC++ 2005 Beta1. So far everything went
fine, and already have a working project, but soon I realized that the
compiler was ancient (not supporting half of the C++/CLI standard). So I

The below code compiles fine in VC++ 6.0, but with VC++ 7.0 (VS 2003),
