I think the forum name must be changed. People see "C++/CLI" and think they can post questions on plain C++ or CLI, cause they are not aware of "C++/CLI". It's really confusing for beginners. I think the forum should be named "Managed C++", and Visual C++ forum should be named "C++ & Visual C++"
Although the discussion forum is (Managed) C++/CLI, from the drop down menu of "Message Boards" it is written "C++/CLI", and that's what is confusing people.

I absolutely agree with this idea! The name must clearly represent the topic, otherwise the "you're on a wrong forum" nightmare will continue. :->

It's funny, because you're posting in the wrong forum. There is a 'suggestions' forum.
I tend to agree in principle, but the fact is, I can't think of anything we can name this forum that will stop people from just seeing 'C++' and filtering out the bit they don't understand.

 Great way to start my day! Thanks

Perhaps the only way it would work is Managed/CLI. Hard to swallow at first, but a good repellent to C++ newbies as well: two bits together that they don't understand.

I have noticed that even bookstores such as Borders inconsistantly shelve C++/CLI books with C/C++ or C# or VB or even by itself (all this in the same store at times). I guess C++/CLI is just a bad name since it is causing so much caos. Anyway, Microsoft is also responsible for OLE, COM, COM+, ActiveX, etc.

I think that the naming is one its greatest disasters. I am currently looking for a new job and would prefer if there was an element of C++/CLI, but it is virtually impossible to find a job spec that contains it. If you search for Managed you get back specs to do with being a manager and if you use the CLI keyword you often get Command Line Interface and other such acronyms.
There are vast Swathes of C Sharp jobs because C# is a really simple keyword to find that does not get confused for something else.
How is the use of C++/CLI meant to grow if programmers can't find jobs where it is being used!

There is a post at the top in red text explaining what this forum is for. But people don't manage to see (++) that.

Hi guys,
here is my problem I have defined a list of managed objects in MyClass.h:
<br />
class MyClass.h<br />
{<br />
public:<br />
MyClass();<br />
gcroot<List<MessageListener^>^> messageListeners;<br />
}<br />
and using the list in the .cpp file
<br />
MyClass::MyClass()<br />
{<br />
messageListeners = gcnew List<MessageListener^>();<br />
}<br />
void MyClass::addMessageListener(u_short id,u_short version)<br />
{<br />
MessageListener^ msgl = gcnew MessageListener(id,version);<br />
messageListeners->Add(msgl);<br />
}<br />
...as you can see I'm trying to use a list of managed objects in an unmanaged class.
My problem is than I can't access the objects in the list
<br />
void MyClass::findMessageListener(u_short id,u_short version)<br />
{<br />
<br />
for(int i = 0;i<messageListeners->Count;i++)<br />
{<br />
MessageListener^ msg = messageListeners[i];<br />
if(msg->id == id && msg->version == version)<br />
{<br />
return msg;<br />
}<br />
}<br />
return nullptr;<br />
}<br />
I would like to have some comments on how this can be done.
Thx

"messageListeners" is a gcroot template instance and does not have an operator []. You need to use the conversion operator ( operator T ) to get at the CLR List object before you can get to the indexer ([]).
MessageListener^ msg = ((List<MessageListener^>^)messageListeners)[i];

Works like a charm!

Hello,
In MFC's CRichEditCtrl, I could set paragraph spacing (before and after) by using PARAFORMAT2. Is there a possibility of achieving the same functionality with .NET 2.0 RichTextBox in C++/CLI?
I've seen several enormous hacks on using PARAFORMAT2 in C#, but I believe it could be done more elegant in C++/CLI (using raw /clr, without safe or pure enforcement).
Or perhaps is there a more convenient method to format paragraph spacing without using native calls?

Hello!
I'm trying to translate some codes from Verilog to C++ using Verilator.
As I could see, there are not many materials to search about it, and I'm getting a lot of errors during this process.
Anyone that works with or at least Verilog (VHDL) could help me?
Thanks a lot!

I think you're in the wrong forum, this is for C++/CLI, I think you want Visual c++.

Christian,
We need to change the name of this forum to "This Is not the Visual C++ Forum". 
Hmm. Never mind! If we did that, we will get an increase of unrelated posts.

I suspect a lot of people see 'visual c++' and assume MFC, and have no idea what 'managed' or 'CLI' means, so they just ignore it.

Dear all
My company has a fax server pool that contains 16 faxes cards. We are using the HylaFax software http://www.hylafax.org/content/Main_Page[^] Which written in C language.
Now that software is good in that when a fax is coming, it transfer it to the correct card (tha card that is specified for the recipt)... But, when we send a fax, it handles tha job to the next available card in the Queu (not nesesarly to be the card that is specified for the sender).
If anybody knows how to enhance this software so it sends the fax correctly(using the sender card) I will appreciate his/her help.
Or if you have an alternative solution that not expensive to use. I will also appreciate that.
Best Regards

Then you can't possibly modify it using C++/CLI. If you want to know how to change this code, your best bet is the Visual C++ forum, although even that is a long shot. You probalby want forums dedicated to users of this particular software.

I am using visual c++ 6.0. I wish to use the COleVariant::GetByteArrayFromVariantArray member function
but the compiler generates error message : GetByteArrayFromVariantArray is not a member function of COleVariant. Why could this happen?? Is this function available only in VC++ 2005??
Is there any way to retrieve a byte array from variant array??
Thanks. I will appreciate any help from you.

Then you're plainly not using C++/CLI. Try the Visual C++ forum.

I am trying to write an app which requires me to convert a String^ to a WCHAR but not having much luck with a resolution.
Can anyone point out where I am going wrong ?
I'm using Visual Studio 2005 and it's a console application.

Just a guess but you are not using the documentation, examples and samples found on msdn.microsoft.com.

G'Day led mike,
Well, ya could be right despite the fact I have tried a number of times creating different search strings in the hope I may find something that steers me in the right direction.
I am pretty new to C++ as I have recently come across from using Borland's Delphi, so I will use that as my excuse.
