I was surprised to see that the default mode for development is unmanaged.
I find myself wondering what you mean by "default mode", as during the last 9 solid years of .net development work I have found it to very much be the case that managed is the default.
Can you clarify your statement?
- mcculley 16y agoYes, I wasn't at all clear. What I meant was that sitting down as a newbie to Visual Studio, I was surprised at how many of the project types created by doing "File->New Project..." resulted in unmanaged .EXE targets. But I could have been misinterpreting that.
- Tamerlin 16y agoThat probably means an executable rather than an assembly, but the underlying execution platform is still the .NET virtual machine, and all that goes with the VM, including managed memory. I could be mistaken, of course; I'm not an expert at .NET yet.
- altano 16y agoWhen you first run Visual Studio you specify what default environment you'd prefer... c++, .net, etc. Perhaps you chose c++?
