Hi
I am working in C# to create desktop database applications. C# facilitates database application programming by providing DataGirdView control, Datasets, DataAdaptars and ADO.Net library. But there is issue of speed with C# applications.

I want to know can I use Visual C++ to create desktop database applications as easily as in C#.

I will be thankful for reply.

Cannot be so easy, IMO. Easier development of such kind of applications is one of the reason of introducing C#, I suppose.

Solution 2

Visual C++ with MFC/ATL allows you to use ADO (the classic version) and ODBC. Here[^] are some ADO samples.

If you are using Visual C++.NET then you can use the ADO.NET providers directly.

Solution 3

Have you profiled your C# code to see where it's taking all it's time? If it's spending yonks in the database interface then it's probably I/O bound and rewriting it in C++ probably won't do you a lot of good.

Cheers,

Ash
