"Essential Guide to Managed Extensions for C++" proves a comprehensive look at the possibilities available to programers writing code in managed extensions for C++ (MC++). The information comes "straight from the horse's mouth" - both authors have been key members of the Visual C++ .NET compiler development team and have spent most of their time implementing the language and educating others about MC++. The book has two parts. Part 1 is about the basics of Managed Extensions for C++. Part 2 is devoted to the transition between managed and unmanaged objects.

With the help of these experienced authors, developers can harness the power of native C++ code to the flexibility of managed code for optimal effect.
