I want to do a Windows Form Application in C++ but by making a simple hello world program (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9sGms_j3l2M) I got a common error (I guess it’s common since it has been questiones here many times)

“Intellisense: Unavailable for C++/CLI”

So my question is, can I do a Windows Form Application in pure C++ (I really want IntelliSense and for other reasons too)

    Yes it will be, and no you cannot do a Windows form application in pure C++. You would need another GUI framework for that, MFC or similar.

    Question is: You usually use C++/CLI when you are calling some native C++ code etc, what is your use case?

    If it’s a project from scratch, can you not just use the C# for Windows forms.
