There is no difference between C# and VB.net except coding style, both the languages share the same .NET libraries. But with VC++ 2008 you can write in both native and standard CLI code based on .NET.

I have to agree with PhatoseAlpha. The differences in class structure could be dealt with, but how do you convert pointers and operations on pointers? It's possible, but I doubt anyone sees the value in doing it.

C# is not a superset of C++ like C++ is of C. C# should be called JavaMS IMO.

That is what I figured.

I have a chunk of C++ code that the client wants converted to C#.

I suspect that it will be a manual class by class process. :(

I hope it ends up being that simple... here's to hoping there's no exotic pointer magic or some other C++ voodoo.
