VC++ is the Microsoft's implementation of C++. Each C++ compiler might compile the code differently. However, all C++ compilers compiles C++ code into Native code. VC++ do the same.


C# however, compiles first into CIL (Common Intermediate Language) and then on runtime, CLR (Common Language Runtime) on a specific platform uses JIT (Just in Time) compilers to dynamically compile CIL code into Native code.
