Hi all,
I loaded the following program 'HelloMCPP' to my MS
VC++ .NET (2002) that is installed on my Windows XP
Professional PC:
-------------------------------------
AssemblyInfo.cpp
---------------------
#include "stdafx.h"
using namespace System::Reflection;
using namespace System::Runtime::CompilerServices;
//
// General Information about an assembly is controlled
through the following
// set of attributes. Change these attribute values to
modify the information
// associated with an assembly.
//
[assembly:AssemblyTitleAttribute("")];
[assembly:AssemblyDescriptionAttribute("")];
[assembly:AssemblyConfigurationAttribute("")];
[assembly:AssemblyCompanyAttribute("")];
[assembly:AssemblyProductAttribute("")];
[assembly:AssemblyCopyrightAttribute("")];
[assembly:AssemblyTrademarkAttribute("")];
[assembly:AssemblyCultureAttribute("")];
//
// Version information for an assembly consists of the
following four values:
//
// Major Version
// Minor Version
// Build Number
// Revision
//
// You can specify all the value or you can default the
Revision and Build Numbers
// by using the '*' as shown below:
[assembly:AssemblyVersionAttribute("1.0.*")];
//
// In order to sign your assembly you must specify a key
to use. Refer to the
// Microsoft .NET Framework documentation for more
information on assembly signing.
//
// Use the attributes below to control which key is used
for signing.
//
// Notes:
// (*) If no key is specified, the assembly is not
signed.
// (*) KeyName refers to a key that has been installed
in the Crypto Service
// Provider (CSP) on your machine. KeyFile refers
to a file which contains
// a key.
// (*) If the KeyFile and the KeyName values are both
specified, the
// following processing occurs:
// (1) If the KeyName can be found in the CSP, that
key is used.
// (2) If the KeyName does not exist and the
KeyFile does exist, the key
// in the KeyFile is installed into the CSP and
used.
// (*) In order to create a KeyFile, you can use the
sn.exe (Strong Name) utility.
// When specifying the KeyFile, the location of
the KeyFile should be
// relative to the project directory.
// (*) Delay Signing is an advanced option - see the
Microsoft .NET Framework
// documentation for more information on this.
//
[assembly:AssemblyDelaySignAttribute(false)];
[assembly:AssemblyKeyFileAttribute("")];
[assembly:AssemblyKeyNameAttribute("")];
--------------------------------
HelloMCPP.cpp
--------------------
// This is the main DLL file.
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "HelloMCPP.h"
----------------------
Stdafx.cpp
-------------------
// stdafx.cpp : source file that includes just the
standard includes
// HelloMCPP.pch will be the pre-compiled header
// stdafx.obj will contain the pre-compiled type
information
#include "stdafx.h"
----------------------
HelloMCPP.h
-----------------
// HelloMCPP.h

#pragma once

using namespace System;

namespace HelloMCPP
{
public __gc class HelloMCPP
{
public:
virtual void Hello()
{
Console::WriteLine(S"Hello from Managed C++!");
}
};
}
--------------------------------------
stdafx.h
-------------------------------
// stdafx.h : include file for standard system include
files,
// or project specific include files that are used
frequently,
// but are changed infrequently

#pragma once

#using <mscorlib.dll>
----------------------------------------------
I did 'Build' and ran this program - I got the following
dialog box:
HelloMCPP-Executable for Debugging Session
Please specify the name of the executable file to be
used for the debug session:
Executable file name:
------------------------------
| | \/ |
------------------------------
(There are three choices in this drop-down:
Internet Explorer
ActiveX Control Test Container
regsvr32)
URL where the project can be assessed
(ATL Server only):
--------------------------------
| |
--------------------------------
(1) I do not know what to pick in the "three choices"
and/or to fill the "URL" box. Please help and tell me
what I should do to get the "Hellow from Managed C++!"
printed out on my computer via the console or Internet.

(2) How does this program use a DLL to pass on
the "Hellow from Managed C++!" to somewhere for printing?
I do not understand this DLL at all!!!??? I do not know
much about DLL. Please explain it to me or point out
where I made a mistake for not specifying a right thing
during the conpiling of this program.

Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang
 
You built a DLL (which doesn't run by itself). You need to build an exe.
What project type did you select when you created this project? You need to
select one that has application"in the name and not "library".
