Visual C++ 2008 for Native Developers

  • Article

With all of the emphasize on .NET, a C++ developer might not be feeling the love.  C++ is still a first class language in Visual Studio 2008.  Microsoft is making big investments in C++ starting with the Visual C++ Feature Pack.

On June 13th, I hosted a webcast with Ayman Shoukry, a Lead Program Manager for C++.  Here is the abstract:

Visual C++ provides a powerful and flexible development environment for creating Microsoft Windows-based and Microsoft .NET-based applications. In this session, Ale Contenti (Senior Development Lead for VS native development) will cover what's new for C++ native developers in Visual Studio 2008. as well as cover the Visual C++ 2008 Feature Pack.

Link to the webcast is here on my Windows Live Skydrive.  Unzip and open default.html to view the recording.  (For a look at the future of C++ in Visual Studio, check out part 2.)

Please note that this webcast is not about managed C++. It is focused on the native C++ developer.
