studio.net to VC++6

[shetlandbob]

Does anyone know how easy it is to change a .net application so that it will load in VC++ 6?

I've done it, its not that difficult, you have to create a new project and workspace though.

 

[shetlandbob]

did you just create new project and workspace files manually?

I've not used vc++ 6 much

 

[Wings]

yes, then add the source files

The main problem is the project settings. If you are just using the default settings, it is not a problem. Unicode stuff is marginally different.

Some things are actually easier in VC6 and the desktop doesn't flicker every time you close a solution.

The main problem I found switching between the two is the Settings dialog on VC6 is the Properties dialog on .net.
