Visual C++ 2005 (also known as Visual C++ 8.0), which included MFC 8.0, was released in November 2005. This version supports .NET 2.0 and includes a new version of C++ targeted to the .NET framework with the purpose of replacing the previous version (Managed C++). Managed C++ for CLI is still available via compiler options, though.
MFC is a library that wraps portions of the Windows API in C++ classes, including functionality that enables them to use a default application framework.Classes are defined for many of the handle-managed Windows objects and also for predefined windows and common controls.
This runtime library is used by programs written in Visual C++ and a few other compilers (e.g. MinGW). Some compilers have their own runtime libraries. With Version 14.0 (Visual Studio 2015), most of the C/C++ runtime was moved into a new DLL, UCRTBASE.DLL, which conforms closely with C99.

Some parts of the C++ program still run within an unmanaged Visual C++ Runtime, while specially modified parts are translated into CIL code and run with the .NET Framework's CLR.
The 2005, 2008, and 2010 versions of Visual Studio Express consist of several standalone IDEs, each of which is focused on a single programming language: Visual Basic Express (the Visual Basic .NET language) Visual C++ Express (the Visual C++ language) Visual C# Express (the C# language) Visual J# Express (the ill-fated J# language, 2005 only)
In 2004, the Managed C++ extensions were significantly revised to clarify and simplify syntax and expand functionality to include managed generics.
