I've actually read many of the links you posted before and am pretty confident about MFC staying around. What I want is a method by which to program in native C++, but to be able to take advantage of the Avalon and new MFC framework without using .NET. Maybe I'm just overly stubborn but I don't happen to like framework-garbage-collectors and the various other things it "handles" automatically for me, nor the fact that .NET is easily reverse engineerable. If I'm going to be forced to use .NET, we may end up developing soley for the *NIX platform, as GUI options are really secondary in our apps to actual functioning. Have they made any mention of being able to stay away from .NET in the new OS, or is it pretty much a take-it or leave-it situation? -- Josh McFarlane "Peace cannot be kept by force.
