Welcome to the Visual C++ Language Forum

Greetings,
This forum was created to address questions about writing code in C++. Visual C++ supports several programming language standards including the following:

  • C - ISO C90 with a few features for C99
  • C++ - ISO standard for C++
  • C++/CLI - Forthcoming standard for C++ programs running on the CLR
  • OpenMP - Standard for concurrent programming in C++
  • IEEE Floating Point - Visual C++ 2005 has much improved support for FP

In addition, Visual C++ is the best language for writing code that interops between different technologies. Visual C++ can compile any C++ code to run on the Common Language Runtime by using the /clr switch.

This forum is available to ask questions about the language constructs that Visual C++ offers as well as questions on the interop technologies.
