No, no it is not.

The Windows Store app model is derived from COM, but .NET is something else altogether. That is why there are COM interop classes.

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow)
{
    MSG msg;
    BOOL bRet;

    for(; ; )
    {
        bRet = GetMessage(&msg, NULL, 0, 0);

        if (bRet > 0)  // (bRet > 0 indicates a message that must be processed.)
        {
            TranslateMessage(&msg);
            DispatchMessage(&msg);
        }
        else if (bRet < 0)  // (bRet == -1 indicates an error.)
        {
            // Handle or log the error; possibly exit.
            // ...
        }
        else  // (bRet == 0 indicates "exit program".)
        {
            break;
        }
    }
    return msg.wParam;
}

So Nish...when's your job going to get outsourced to a guy in India?

That's him on the screen, isn't it?
