• .NET Development How about a form topic "Getting Started"?

  OK. I installed Framework for .NET. I've yet to find a gui that runs the thing or even a discussion anywhere on the simple subject of "getting started". I'm not exactly a novice at using programming tools. I have a degree in Computer Science, know about a dozen languages and 5 operating systems, am a published author of a number of commercial packages and, for what it's worth, used to write feature articles, with code, for an international computer mag back in the 8-bit 80's.

• Visual C# How easy is this in C#?

  Sorry for the very general subject line. I've been working on a problem for some time right now that will have two separate applications passing information back and forth and preferably sharing objects. To date, I've been working on this problem using C++ and the WinAPI. However, the WinAPI and Visual Studio c++ 2005 don't really integrate very well. I've been taking a look at C# lately, and it seems like the language would support this effort pretty well through the use of marshalling (a new concept to me), and multi-threading. I would like to hear from some experienced C# programmers their opinion on how easy this would be to implement in C#. There is an example in "Programming C#" that seems like it would accomplish the type ...Show All
