C++/CLI: .CPP and .H

The C++/CLI standard file extensions are the same as standard C++. Important C++ file extensions:

.CPP = C++ Source file. Your startup source file will have a main() routine.
.C = C source file (sometimes used for C++ source files too).
.H = Header include file.

Some important Visual C++ file extensions:

.SLN = Visual Studio.Net solution
.VCPRJ = The Visual C++ project file. See Project Files and Makefiles for more information.
