status of msclr templates: auto_handle, auto_gcroot, call_in_appdomain, et cetera
I just updated to the August 06 MSDN Library from the previous and the first thing that I did was try to follow something in one of my favorites to this information:http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms177046.aspx but the link was unfollowable. So then I tried search for auto_handle, auto_gcroot and call_in_appdomain and I got zero hits.
What gives? Is Microsoft deciding to not support these templates after all? Or is the new MSDN just dysfunctional? Should I uninstall it and go back to the previous one?

I guess I can take this question to some documentation forum. A search on "stl" also gets zero hits. Useless. What a waste of a morning.
Yes I have my search options set so that it should find the doc.

Hi Bern, in order to better understand the issue, can you give us some more information? It sounds like you installed the Aug 2006 quarterly library locally, but I'm not quite sure from your post what you did in what order. Did you create a favorite, install Aug 2006 quarterly library and then use the favorite from with a standalone MSDN link or did you access it from Visual Studio?
Can you outline what steps you took and what happened and how are you accessing your favorite?
Thanks,
Harry
