Ahah, I knew I missed one!
I originally had ATL in there, but my proofreading squad (Claude and ChatGPT) told me that ATL was a more niche thing for COM, and looking at the Wikipedia article I was convinced they were right.
But WTL was what I was thinking of---the step between the MFC and .NET that I forgot.

- int_19h 6mo agoWTL was never a "step between the MFC and .NET" in any meaningful sense. It was more like a very lightweight subset of MFC+ATL, never officially supported or recommended, just something that Microsoft used internally that it decided to publish and then community picked up.
