Description

In Visual Studio 2022, the standard target framework set for .NET Core projects is version 6.0, while for .NET Framework projects, it defaults to version 4.7.2. You can find the selector for the .NET Framework version on the project configuration page within the new project creation dialog. However, C++/CLI isn't included by default when you install the C++ workload in Visual Studio. If you wish to add this component post-installation, you can do so by launching the Visual Studio Installer through the Windows Start menu and searching for it. Once in the installer, click the modify button next to your current Visual Studio version, head to the Individual components tab, and scroll to the compilers, build tools, and runtimes section to enable C++/CLI support for the v143 build tools (Latest). After making your selection, simply click modify to download the necessary components and update Visual Studio. By utilizing C++/CLI, you can develop C++ applications that leverage both .NET classes and native C++ types, making it a versatile tool for console applications. This integration allows for a seamless blend of managed and unmanaged code, enhancing the functionality of your projects.
