[C++.NET]Hello World

[.Fusion]

c++ 2005...

Anyways to get started..

Open Microsoft C++ studio, create a new CLR Console application.

Now you should be in code mode add this source I will explain rest in a minute.

Code: [Select]

// Hello World1.cpp : main project file.

#include "stdafx.h"

using namespace System;

int main(array<System::String ^> ^args)
{
Console::WriteLine(L"Hello World");
    return 0;
}

Ok the

Code: [Select]

// Hello World1.cpp : main project file.
Is telling us the project name so when you click on new CLR Console application at the bottom it will ask you for a name and I put "Hello World1" seeing as I already had a "Hello World".

Now

Code: [Select]

#include "stdafx.h"
Is telling us we have an include named stadfx.h.

Code: [Select]

using namespace System;
Is pretty simple its basicly using the namespace System to write lines.

Code: [Select]

int main(array<System::String ^> ^args)
That is going to make the lines so they write onto the Application.

Code: [Select]

Console::WriteLine(L"Hello World!");
This is very important. That is going to write the line "Hello World!"
Always write lines using the

Code: [Select]

Console::WriteLine
Method. You must have the (L" in there or else it will not print the line, you also need the ; telling it its the end of the line.

The } is telling it its the end of the project so it can stop and wont go any furthur.

Note: When de bugging click Debug> Start without debugging.

You sure you know c++.. ?

You sure you know c++.. ?

This is C++.NET instead of ANSI C++. There are slight differences in the variations of the styles of this language C++.

Regular C++

Code: [Select]

cout << "Hello World!" << endl;
C++.NET

Code: [Select]

Console::WriteLine(L"Hello World");
Basically, C++.NET is Microsofts bull shit version of C++ for the .NET Framework.

I know

I was mainly making reference to the inaccurate/not very detailed and in some places completely wrong comments, e.g:

int main(array<System::String ^> ^args)

That is going to make the lines so they write onto the Application.

That's just completely pulled out of his ass.
