I ve just looked at the developers stuff. And its all VS6.
Does or will megplus support .net assembly. Cuz coding vb 6 when youre used to C#.net2003 is like going back to the stoneage.
If there isnt dotnet support I would really like to see it included in the next version. I think most programmers dont code a plugin for msplus cuz the VS studio used belongs in a musium

I code in VB.net and a little bit C# .net too, but as far as I am concerned, I think few people have .net framework redistributable pack (i.e. the CLR) which is over 20MB installed...And I don't think people will download it only for a 100kb plugin

You can always make a poll here in the forums anyway

well patchou codes in c++ so its not easy to translate it all

It's not hard to do that, jwb, do you really know what .net language is?

not excatly but hey........ you learn a new thing every day

Since you respond within 2 secs:
how does msgplus include the plugins. I use plugins, but they are loaded by a someone elses plugin-framework so i dontknow how assemblies are loaded, but i think the dotnet assembly needs another load-protocol then the 'old' assembliestypes. The only thing i want to know is IF it can be done, without having to force people to include the .net-framework. isnt there some sort of small lib for C++6 to check if there is a .net framework and depending on that load the .net assemblies?

I agree, and also people who have VS .NET can compile their plugins in the "traditional" way. Also, programs (in general) in .NET are slower than the ones compiled for x86

Sorry C# and VB .net2003 are .net assembly only. only C++ has extra assembly types

and .net is slower if you look at the speed of simple operations. but have you ever made a class in VB6, It is slow. very slow. But .net has far more extra options which exclude time consuming operations. Did you know that in VB6 you cant acces array-childclasses in a class. So you have to acces it though a property, talking about speed isues But that isnt what this post s about.

I still didnt get any anwser Does anyone know how to make a plugin for msgplus with .net???
And if it cant: does anyone know if patchou can add .net support.

btw what is the poll center?

That's the reason why .NET (as handy as it is to program in) is a big no-no... I find the needed Visual <fill in here> libraries already big. So I don't want to install another 20MB pack so I can run those... Although MS says the .NET is the future, I read many many reports and comments from programmers who refuse to use it because of that "bigness" and often switch back to (V)C.... And talking about the stonage: learn assembly. It is the fastest (afcourse) and you can do everything with it...
