Can any body tell me that instead of "const" what can we use in MC++.
Thanks in advance!!

I need to send and receive data through RS-232 port in a synchronous way.
The problem is that the data packet I need to send and receive is huge so I
need to send and receive it in two or more segments.
But I need to do that with two functions one to read and one to send in such

I have a Web Service that was originally created with .NET VC 2003,
and subsequently converted to the 2005 version.  It works fine when
built as a debug version, and run on the workstation it was built on.
Now I want to build a release version so I can deploy it to Windows

All:
I've run into a rather interesting problem.  I'm trying to launch an MSI
program (e.g. "MSIExec.Exe MyMSI.msi /qn") from my Win32 service.  The
MSIExec.Exe process launches okay (supposedly in "quiet" mode due to the

Hi all,
I am porting an code written in VC++ to VC.Net to make it manage.
I am getting one error as::
error C4439: 'function_name' : function definition with a managed type in

Note that although this involves SAPI, it is more a question about Timers
and event handlers.
I wrote a Speech Recognize handler (SAPI), and put some code in it to enable
a Timer. It would not do it. If I bring this same code outside this event

I have installed VC++ 2008 Express and .NET Framework 3.5 on a Vista (Home
Premium) machine. I'm also up-to-date with Windows.
I can see in MSDN a description of a namespace called
System.Speech.Recognition for which I assume the C++ equivalent is

I've a std::set defined inside a class that must be exported/imported.
I've use this macro:
#define EXPORT_STL_SET( dllmacro, settype ) \
 template class dllmacro std::allocator< settype >; \

I have written a program using VC++ 2008 Express (Beta 2). It uses
System::Speech for speech recognition.
My program works fine in VS GUI, both Debug and Release. It also works fine
in Debug stand-alone (outside GUI). And it begins to work in Release

I am a new bee to c++/cli, here's my question: I have a template
version of a smart pointer class I can't use in my application because
I need to use it in more than one assembly. I thought of rewriting the
class as a generic class to avoid this problem. Unfortuneatly it is

I'm working on migrating my VC++ 6.0 project to VS C++ 2005 and I'm bulding
the project using NMAKE from the command line. The code is not GUI, all
console utilities and services. I've managed to compile/build the code but
couple of places in my build tree I don't see manifest ...

We upgraded a bunch of MEC++ code to C++/CLI about 10 months ago and we've
noticed that our images bloated quite a lot in the process. Upon
investigating I observed that when a /clr compiland includes a header file
for a native type that has an inlined copy constructor, that both ...

I have been using VC++ 2005 Express for a while now. I'm very impressed with
the language and GUI environment. But, more to the point, I pretty much
adore MANAGED programming, since trying to figure out when it is appropriate
to delete something has always been the main problem ...

I have an application that consists of a managed C++ wrapper around an
unmanaged C++ "engine" that performs a very processor intensive task.   In
the application I create two instances of the managed wrapper (and therefore
of the unmanaged engine) on separate threads so that it ...

I have a small C++/CLI application which calls an unmanaged lib.
It seems like I can't use /clr:pure and link with the unmanaged lib (LNK1313
error).
The problem I have is that compiling with /clr adds a dependency on several
