GDI+... Do I HAVE to use C#?

Hello. I'm thinking about dabbling in some GDI+ (once my external hard drive with Visual C++ 2009 Express gets here, ;). I would like to do this in C++, as it's my strongest language, and I'd really rather not have to go to the trouble of learning C# just so I can experiment with GDI+...

I've done some researching, and (unfortunately) all I can find are tutorials that use C#!

Does anyone know of any GDI+ and/or Microsoft .NET tutorials that have code examples in C++? If so, plz post a link!

Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks!

Yes, you can use GDI+ without using C#; you can use either C++/CLI for the .net environment or native C/C++.

For native (Win API) code start here:

or direct to the Using GDI+ section

Looks good to me! Thanks a lot!
