Any books covering the new C++/CLI spec yet?

[_R]

Now that the VS2005 beta is available, have any authors dipped their
toes into the new C++/CLI spec?

I'm particularly interested in how the new syntax/performance will
relate to 'C++Invoke' (using mixed C++ DLL to provide
managed->unmanaged transition for C#).

Hello _R,

Apparently Stan Lippman is in the process of writing a book on this very
topic. My source for this was found here : http://pluralsight.com/blogs/keith/archive/2004/10/06/2690.aspx

Hope this helps,

C++/CLI has not been finalised yet. You may download the latest draft and have a look:
