IS COM (ATL) dead ?

[Bartholomew Simpson]

New to this whole .net fangled thing. been programming C/C++ for donkeys
though ...

Need to interface legacy C++ code with a VB6 front end and it looks like
I need to write some ATL COM wrappers. Is it worth me learning how to
write ATL COM objects - or is this a dead technology ?

Not at all, it's still being used a lot.
