Customer Reviews

Another great Richard Grimes book

I cannot say it better than another reviewer "This book is typical of Grimes work...focused, lucid, and complete". This is a great book for learning Managed Extensions for Microsoft Visual C++.Net.

None other

I've been developing in C++ for 11 years and could not praise this volume enough. It's a thorough treatise on using managed extensions. If you're looking for intro or IDE walkthrough stuff, this is not your book. This book is typical of Grimes work...focused, lucid, and complete. This goes beside my Stroustrup and K & R references.

Lean and Mean....

If you are the type of person that already knows Visual C++ and all the MFC,ATL,... stuff. And now you just want to know how use the NET Framework in the C++ language. This is an ideal book for acomplishing that objective. One of the things i hate in many tec. books it's that they tell the same 'story' over and over...and over again. In this case the author simply assumes that you know VC++ and introduces the NET Framework to you. Chapter 5 is worth the money spent and deserves a reminder, the author gets down to the metal and explains the system internals of the NET Framework via VC++. Even if you don't buy the book you should read this chapter ......
