vs 6.0 or .NET |
Hi everyone,
I have been programming for about half a year (c++) so I 'm still learning
and my programs are fairly simple. I'm using .NET , but I notice some
differences with visual studio 6.0, which is installed in my university. I
transfered my code (written in .NET) to the university and it couldn't
compile!
So I wonder, should I go for visual c++ 6.0 instead of .NET, or is it worth
to keep going with the new platform?
Thanks!

If your goal is to learn C++, and I presume it is since you are posting to a
C++ newsgroup, you should be using .NET. Its conformance to the C++ Standard
is much better than VC++ 6.0.

For Windows .NET is the way to go. C# is a modern programming language
and should be a good first language to learn.
Did your C++ programs stop compiling with VS.NET? This could be due
to a more standards compliant version of the C++ compiler in VS.NET.

The C++ compiler in VS.NET has much better standards conformance than VC6.
As a result, there are some things in the C++ standard that you can do with
VS.NET, but not with VS6.
What code is causing you issues? What error messages are you seeing?
