Re: Venting on .NET

Hi Ajay,

I think what they are saying is it would be nice to be able to have a
totally managed application with doc/view support. Right now most .NET
applications use WinForms which is very clumsy for doing anything "view"
oriented beyond dialog type applications. A totally managed version of MFC
would be helpful in making C++ compelling for these kinds of applications
imo.
