i am doubtful about it that vc++6.0 is .Net framework independent or depends on it help required?

A:
VC++ 6.0 does not depend on .NET. It shipped as part of the last set of Microsoft development tools before the debut of .NET. You can rest assured, though, that even versions of VC++ since then don't bring in .NET by default--they only use .NET if you compile with managed extensions turned on.

A:
Visual C++ 6.0 (people still use it?) came out in 1998, predating the release of .NET Framework by about four years. Therefore, it does not .

Mr. when we have to design an interface independent of .NET framework i think it is good choice

@moon Not really, when you need to design an Interface independent from .net, then using a 10 year old, unsupported compiler with multiple known standard violations is not a good choice. VC6 is vintage, just like Windows 98. If I wanted a Windows Development tool to write an interface that does not use .net, I would use Visual C++ 2008 (or the 2010 version that comes out in 2 weeks) and create a Win32 project, as these do not use .net. (the .net version of C++ is called C++ CLI, but Visual Studio can still create native Win32 C++ projects)

I'm trying to understand the down-vote. Was my answer factually incorrect, irrelevant, or irreverent?

@moon, using VC6 for any sort of new development is a very _bad_ choice. It wasn't a particularly good compiler when it was current, it's not supported anymore as Michael says, it doesn't know about the newer processors for optimisation purposes etc etc.
