Hello,

Just thought I would let you know that I successfully used the
Codebase OLE-DB driver in a C# .NET application. The test application
simply created a clipper database.

I'll throw in my 2 cents. I was able to recompile the codebase source for
use with C++ .Net. Worked great.

Are there incentives to use C++.net instead of say VC++ 6 ?

Well I don't know too much about Codebase in C++ ... but I do know
that .NET is supposed to be far better than anything before. For one
thing Microsoft has promised to rid us of DLL hell. So far I have
been experimenting with it for a couple of months using their new C#
language and it has been awesome. These are just some of the
advantages that I see.

That depends. The biggest component of .NET is that it provides a "managed"
environment. This means, among others, that it provides a garbage
collection mechanism, so it is unnecessary to manage the deletion of
dynamically allocated memory. The caveat is that, in order to utilize this
capability, you have to operate within the sphere of "managed C++". This
means that you cannot use pointers (and other restrictions apply, as well).
IMHO - managed C++ is a mistake. If you are going to use .NET - move to C#.

With that being said, it is possible to use VC7 (.NET) to create unmanaged
C++ code - just like VC6. VC7 provides better compliance with the C++
standards, especially in the area of STL. I plan on moving to VC7 and use
it to create unmanaged C++ code, until such time as we move to C# and .NET.
