vista - managed codeJust out of interest, how much of Vista, Office 2K8, Visual Studio 2K8 is
written in managed code? guy Guy,
Managed code is not the only development environment supported by Microsoft. Why should they use it. Probably most of there librarys are not in that. Did they write somewhere that you ***should*** use managed code. For the rest sounds this the same for me as asking to AirBus how often they use there big planes themselves instead of cars. Cor er?

Also, it is possible to write an entire OS except for specific hardware handlers in "managed" code. Digital Equipment did this 30 years ago with VAX/VMS. This happens to be the major reason there are so few security holes in OpenVMS today.
