I do know some "basic" differences but there are still some questions in my mind: What's their difference in performance at runtime? //This I really wanna know. Why can't you build a MSIL assembly using C++/CLI? What's the PE code (Not the .NET's PEKind) of a MSIL/CIL assembly? (C++/CLI assemblies have the same PE Code than unmanaged b...

Can the same thing be done in C++/CLI? There's no yield keyword, so my gut reaction is that there isn't, which sucks, but what ...
I have a C++/CLI project that uses CWinFormsControl and CWinFormsView to create .NET controls in my MFC views. To do this I need to #include "afxwinforms.h".

There have been substantial features and improvements in C# with each new release of the .NET framework, and in the upgrade from .NET1.0 to .NET2.0, Managed C++ was replaced with C++/CLI, which was a great improvement. Have there been any improvements in C++/CLI since .NET2.0? ...
How do you register a COM object written in Managed C++ to be SingleUse? Regasm does not appear to have the option.
