I am including a class into my mixed managed/unmanaged C++ application that
uses MFC classes such as CSTRING.  
#include <afx.h>  // have to include this in order to compile
#include "CSharedMemory.h"

With the help of Karl Petterson, we've moved tonight the old MVP VC++ FAQ
(http://www.mvps.org/vcfaq/) over to the new MVPS.ORG server. The new
address is http://vcfaq.mvps.org/ but redirects are in place so existing
links will keep working, so no need to worry about that.

Does Visual Studio 2005 work with Source Safe 6.0? Thanks.

Recently I tried to use -G5 option on CL compiler (from Visual Studio
2005)... To my surprise, there is no processor specific optimizations
anymore! Is that correct?
Is so, why?

I did spend quite a long time finding how to call managed code from
unmanaged C++ class.
Here is the my final code:

In visual studio 2005 I have built a simple win32 console programm.the code
as follows:

I'm trying to create an unmanaged instance within a managed object. In the
one module, I've constructed an unmanaged class that makes a lot of API
calls. It compiles with no errors. In the other module, when an instance of
the unmanaged class is created, a Link error is ...

Can someone help me out how can I resolve the error "0xC0000005: Access

By reuse, I mean a function in an assembly which is called in another
assembly.
By a mixed-mode function I mean a function whose signature has one or
more CLR types and one or more non-CLR types.

Is it possible to redirect the linker & compiler to use a similar function
without getting complaints about 'function x already  in blah.obj'?
Of course, I'm not talking about a runtime hook but about compilation time.

How do I get a handle to an object from one of its member functions? I
cannot find anything in the docs that shows a handle version of the
"this" pointer - but there has to be one - right?
Thanks,
