how to use MFC in C++/CLI

[ma]

Hello,

I have several classes in C++/MFC that I would like to use when I am
using C++/CLI windows form.



I did create a windows form application in VC2005 and when I am trying to
add my class to it, it doesn't accept them and generate error compiling MFC
header files.



I think the problem is somewhere in project setup. Currently it is /clrure
which I think means that I can only use pure CLI objects. What can I do to
solve the problem? Is there any document that show how I can use MFC based
classes in windows form?



Best regards

Hi ma!

I have several classes in C++/MFC that I would like to use when I am
using C++/CLI windows form.

I did create a windows form application in VC2005 and when I am trying to
add my class to it, it doesn't accept them and generate error compiling MFC
header files.

Which errors? This should be possible...

I think the problem is somewhere in project setup. Currently it is /clrure
which I think means that I can only use pure CLI objects.

Yes. This might lead to problems... you should use "/clr"...

What can I do to
solve the problem? Is there any document that show how I can use MFC based
classes in windows form?

AFAIK, the documented way is to use Windows-Forms inside MFC-Apps...
