c++-cli

Does Mono .NET support and compile C++ / CLI? If not, do you know if they have any plans of supporting it? lupus We don't have a compiler for C++/CLI, it would be a very large undertaking for a very small userbase. Consider also that the C++/CLI spec is inherently flawed and non-portable, so being able to compile it wouldn't help much in the general case. You can compile using the MS .NET compiler and run in mono with these restrictions: run with mono on any system if the C++/CLI app is pure managed (but then, why use such an ugly language and not C#?) run with mono on windows in the other

I have a function which parses one string into two strings. In C# I would declare it like this: void ParseQuery(string toParse, out string search, out string sort) { ... } and I'd call it like this: string searchOutput, sortOutput; ParseQuery(userInput, out searchOutput, out sortOutput); The current project has to be done in C++/CLI. I've tried using System::Runtime::InteropServices; ... void ParseQuery(String ^ toParse, [Out] String^ search, [Out] String^ sort) { ... } but if I call it like this: String ^ searchOutput, ^ sortOutput; ParseQuery(userInput, [Out] searchOutput, [Out] sortOutput);

I have a C++ application which consists of unmanaged C++, managed C++ and c#. In the unmanaged part I'm trying to create a thread safe collection using std::mutex. However when I use the mutex I get the following error; error C1189: #error : <mutex> is not supported when compiling with /clr or /clr:pure. Any idea why I can't use the mutex? Can someone recommend a replacement for it so that I can create a thread-safe unmanaged collection? It is not supported because the std::mutex implementation uses GetCurrentThreadId(). That's a winapi function that is not supposed to be use in managed code

Just wondering if there is a way to use LINQ in C++/CLI. I found one post that was focused on VS 2008 and required a bunch of workarounds for the System::String class. I have seen some framework replacements on CodeProject, but I was wondering if there is a way to use it directly in C++/CLI. If you can, anyone have a good example? You can use the Linq methods that are defined in the System::Linq namespace, but you'll have to jump through a couple extra hoops. First, C++/CLI doesn't support extension methods. However, the extension methods are regular methods defined on various classes in
