Summary

---

This hour you learned about the new special features in Visual C++ .NET that allow it to create managed code for the .NET Framework. Other new features have been added to the language, compiler, and linker to provide enhancements and support for 64-bit Windows development. However, they are not required for .NET development.

As you read through the other hours, you will work with the new language features you've become familiar with in this hour, and you will see how they fit into the bigger picture of creating .NET Framework applications and working with legacy Visual C++ applications.
