Is Win32 API support C++ managed extension?

If it doesn't support c++ managed extension,then how complex will it be to turn existing projcts into c++ managed extension,or what a pity that we couldn't easily use Win32 API in new project to support .net frame because Win32 API is really a huge helpful resource.

What are you trying to do? Do you want to use C++ in a C# project?Kuphryn

kuphryn,I just want my C++ component to be used in other .net languages like C# or VB.net.The C++ component is required to managed,but I am not sure whether I can embedded win32 API in my c++ component to be managed.yaoliwei2000 at 2007-11-11 2:48:27 >

One solution is COM. What do you mean "managed?"Kuphryn

COM has some shortcoming,like redundant code,unconvenient type conversion.So I want to use .net framework's interoperatility on .net.The word "managed" I refer to is meaning C++ managed extensions to make c++ managed code that supports .net and its interoperatibility.

You can mix both managed and unmanaged class in a C++ project. You can make a managed class that will be used by VB/C# but inside that class, it will call the unmanaged functions or class which in turn will call the win32 API.Hope it will help you
