Can i develop Web Services on Unmanaged C++ ?
Sanks !

Yes, but it A LOT more work. Why would you want to?

Come to think of it why would even ask? Unmanaged C++ compiles all of the way down to native code, has full access to the kernel, etc...Anything the computer is capable of can be coded in C++.......:confused:

Maybe you talk about COM technology ?

[TheCPUWizard]

COM is one way to go, so is the following


void main()
{
asm
{
// A whole lot of stuff goes here.....
}
}



Really, I am not trying to be sarcastic, look back at my original post, the question is WHY? there are good tools available....

You could even get a raw disk sector editor and punch up the entire program in hex!

WHY ? I`m just don`t like such type of products like Java....and now Microsoft follow to it.....but avoid this impossible :mad:
(sorry for english)

[TheCPUWizard]

Your english is fine. :)

Have you seriously looked at doing this as a Managed C++ application?

[hîÎp]

I can`t maintain exactly, but Managed C++ application uses differ subsystem of memmory allocation and own calling convention, therefore in my opinion it lose that freedom it was before.

Something Gained, Something Lost. Implementing proper memory allocation for a Web Service without the libraries help would be a significant effort. One firm asked me to quote developing a C++ based web service that would run on Unix. They wanted it from the ground up. I just pulled the quotation we gave them $175,000 US. No joke. Our average price for developing a .NET web service (C#,VB.NET, Managed C++) is under $3000.

That should give a feel for amount of work that is saved by leveraging the existing code base.
