Minimum .NET framework install for native C++/MFC app?

Post by George Wis » Fri, 15 Nov 2002 08:01:52



I've ported our app to VS7. It is a native C++/MFC
CAD/CAM app that does not explicitly or intentionally
make use of the .NET framework.

Will our end users be required to download and install
the 20 meg .NET framework?

Or, can we just provide a minimum set of DLL's such as
MFC70.dll?

Thanks,
George

You  don't need need the .net framework for running a Native MFC
application.

1. Sending messages from MFC app to .Net app

I want to send messages from old C++ MFC app to a new C#.net app.
I thought about using a WM_COPYDATA message.
I know how to send the message from MFC but don't have a clue how to receive
it in .Net (what event handler to use etc).
Any Ideas?
(any other simple communication method is welcome - the information that
should pass is one way and consists of a message of 10 bytes every few
minutes)

Thanks.
