It's not a matter of C++ or C## but a matter of managed or unmanaged language. Nowadays VS C++ can create old style binaries and CLR. For C++ you can use the MSI but I recommend a source installation. It makes debugging easier. You may want to port my PCbuild9 directory from svn trunk (Python 2.6) to Python 2.5 if you like to use VS 2008. For CLR/.NET (Managed C++, C#, VB, ...) you need the PythonDotNET bindings from http://pythonnet.sf.net/. Brian (the creator of PythonDotNET) and I are very busy in the last weeks and months. The last preview release is outdated. Please check out the latest version from PythonDotNET's SVN. The support for unmanaged C++ is better than the support for managed .NET code.
