...of you still use C++/MFC on a frequent basis?
EDIT ==========================
I haven't used it since 2007.

Not me.
Can't even remember the last time I did - well before I learned C# at least!

Not me - Win API and MFC don't mix well together (trouble including several windows headers). Win32 API are required because graphic engine is still VB6.

Huh?
I now use Qt, but still have a few MFC utilities I recompile every now. I also had a contract last year that used MFC to host flash and we had no problems updating compilers and MFC versions (there was a consensus to move as much as possible to C++11/14 except for CString, but only because it has become so ubiquitous in the code and there was no need to change it for the sake of changing it.)

At first there was QBASIC and DOS machines. Then came VB6 and WinNT, and it was a Good Thing. But VB6 is single thread and the demands grew, especially managing hardware (custom hardware, special industrial machines). Then came C++, that was faster and could instantiate threads through the Win32 API, and could export API functions to VB6, and it was a Good Thing.
Possibly in the future, if the hundreds of customers and manglement will give us two developers a breath, there will be C#/WPF graphic interface and C++ elaboration. Then we will be whole and the Judgment will come, at least until Microsoft pushes another technology on the line. Then we will wait our customary 10 years and implement it... maybe.

I do (for good or bad, at least MFC, love C++).
The thing with MFC is that it is hard to customize to fit the whim of UX designers.
I'd rather be phishing!

Define frequent - I last used it in 2003!

At least 10 years, maybe longer.

I still do and probably will do so in the future. I have good knowledge of MFC and getting to that level with other frameworks would take a lot of time.
At work I am actually using Qt for a headless Raspberry Pi application. But I will still use MFC instead of Qt for Windows applications (unless an application has to run on Linux too).

I do. But I am a hobby programmer who does not have the current desire to learn anything new when anything I want to do I can accomplish with C++ and MFC.

I'm a hobbyist, but still use C++/Win32 for developement projects. I have not used MFC since I retired 10 years ago; and I don't miss it.

MFC, no; C++, yes. Mostly DirectX/game engine stuff.
|
|
|
|

Aye, Captain.
My last development project was MFC based. I haven't touched it for several months, but I did do something on it earlier this year.
I'm retired. There's a nap for that...

I think the last time I used MFC was 2006... Ah, message pump, how I miss thee...

I did about 3 months of it at the end of last year. It was my first exposure longer than a few days in over a decade. Basically we smeared a ribbon of lipstick on a pig while playing bug whackamole.

I am currently supporting an application that was written in C++ 4. It works with a third party API that was built around MFC.
I could, perhaps, write a wrapper for this and rebuild it using C# but I reckon this item can hear the scrap heap calling so it isn't worth the effort.
We're philosophical about power outages here. A.C. come, A.C. go.

I'm pretty sure the archeology project I worked on is slated for the same in the nearish term. OTOH it was a C/XWindows (probably Solaris) app before being ported to MFC in the late 90's, so it can't be said not to've had a good run.
