How to declare a managed variable as a member of a not-managed class?

[René Estrella]

I need to declared a managed variable as a member of a class that is not
managed. How can I do that? Please, don't say I have to declare the class
as a managed one, because I can't apply that solution. Please, give me
other solution. Thanks.

You have to use the gcroot template. See the <vcclr.h> header file, and
section 16.2, page 125 of the managed extensions document that's included
with VC++ (it's in your VC7 directory, in case you haven't located it).
