Core c++ vs. Managed Code?

by Terrence Young · in Technical Issues · 06/22/2006 (6:11 pm) · 3 replies

I just need some advice, I first learned to program in Visual C++ 6.0 and I want to go back and cover the more hardcore things. Do you recommend I learn core C++ (platform independant) or the managed code version of C++ as is in C++.net 2005 or somethin. THanks!

    Well since you want hardcore, managed isn't really the way to go.

    Yeah I was thinking that too I heard it is slower as well.

    I learned .NET but never use it. .NET uses more ram, and requires your end users to have the framework installed. I'm not sure if it runs slower, but that makes sense.
