a compiler for managed c++

[Johnson]

I am asking a beginner's question.

Is there any free compiler (or toolchain) for Managed C++ codes
available for Eclipse? I have a project written in managed c++, and I
don't want to be tied to Microsoft any more.

Thank you.

Then don't write in Managed "C++" (note the quotes).

managed C++ is, well, an MS product to bridge C++ to .NET...

the way to break free of MS then, is not to write in Managed C++, but
instead to write in plain C++...

OTOH, Eclipse is an IDE, and AFAIK itself does not manage the compilers
directly (although, AFAIK, it does do its own Java compilation). however, I
really don't know as personally I have never really felt much need to make
use of IDEs...

If you are interested in a kind of "safe C++", please have
a look at SAPPEUR. This language is as safe as Java, but
as efficient as C++. This is achieved by a good type system
and runtime checks for null pointers and array overruns.
It also has support for assuring the integrity of multithreaded
applications, which will become important with multicore
CPUs.
C++ Integration is easy, as the SAPPEUR compiler translates
into C++ code.
