    C++ Runtime for Windows 8 Store apps
    Avatar Raman Sharma September 28, 2012 Sep 28, 2012 09/28/12

    C++/CX Part 2 of [n]: Types That Wear Hats
    Avatar Visual CPP Team September 17, 2012 Sep 17, 2012 09/17/12
    See C++/CX Part 0 of [N]: An Introduction for an introduction to this series. The hat (^) is one of the most prominent features of C++/CX--it's hard not to notice it when one first sees C++/CX code. So, what exactly is a ^ type? A hat type is a smart pointer type that (1) automatically manages the lifetime of a Windows Runtime object and (2) ...
