hmm Jamal, correct me if I am wrong, but my understanding is that one
can't compile binary, native win32 executable if they use the cli
part.
Sure visual C can generate binaries for win32, but if you use the
extensions, at least based on what I have understood, the .net
dependencies will be kept ...
In other words I can use visual C to develope binaries in raw c++ but
not in the cli version, using visual c.

When you say "I wrote a program that crashed Windows," people just
stare at you blankly and say "Hey, I got those with the system, for
free."
