In the 'old days', we could create a pointer to an instance of a variable
like so:
int i  = 58 ;
int* i_ptr = &i  ;

Maybe it's a known issue but i couldn't find any answer so far...
Consider this c# function:
// ----------------------------------
public int SumUp(params int[] iArgs)

I am currently reviewing what is required to convert a current MFC, COM
server application into a .NET application.  The objective is to
compile ultimately to clr/safe.
So we are seeking a clear migration path for C++\MFC\COM to .NET.

I'm using VS C++.NET 2005 Express in /clr. How do I create, and then use, a

One of my applications is built with VC 6.0.
I planned to move the existing code to .NET. As the first step I just wanted
to build the existing code without any modifications (Unmanaged code) with VC
7.1 compiler.

So, right now I'm writing a program in VC++.Net with MFC, and one of
the steps involves reading numeric values from a comma delimited file
(like 4.56, 2.44, 3.453 etc.). The only methods I've been able to find
to read the values all involve StreamReader, and I can't figure out how

Is there a way of defining a method in a base class such that derived
classes will call their own version, EVEN if the derived instance is
referred to by a pointer to the base class? Note that the base class method
is not to be abstract, and will be called if the instance was ...

Exactly what is meant by the term "test script"?
