I have a simple c++ windows form in visual studio 2010. I want to know if is possible to have this form working with chrome native client PNaCl.
No, Native Client plugins work on the Web Platform, which is inherently platform independent. That means no Windows, OS/X or other platform APIs are exposed.
You must either port your app to use HTML / CSS / Javascript + Native Client, or use Native Messaging to allow your web app to communicate with a Native App that contains your Windows Form.

I'm developing a C++-Win32-app which should be deployed in the Microsoft Store. Unfortunately, since runFullTrustis added automatically as required capability, the program appears in Microsoft Store as follows: "This app can access all your files, peripheral devices, apps, programs and registry.", but I don't need all of those capabilities. Is there any possibility to get rid of the runFullTrust capability or to choose which capabilities are really needed?
If you want to publish the Win32 apps in Microsoft Store, and you must add restricted capability runFullTrust in the manifest.
Only UWP app can be published in the Microsoft Store,if you have an existing desktop application that was built using the .NET Framework (including WPF and Windows Forms) or C++ Win32 APIs, you can several options(Package your desktop application in an MSIX package, Use UWP APIs...) for moving to the UWP and Windows 10. The moved app called desktop bridge apps. You can see more details in document:
Move from a desktop application to UWP
The restricted capability runFullTrust is required for any desktop application that is delivered as an appx or msix package (as with the Desktop Bridge), and it will automatically appear in your manifest when packaging these apps using the Desktop App Converter (DAC) or Visual Studio. You can see this in document:

I need advice about the best way to make an application (written in c++/mfc) communicate with an extension in chrome (I am also studying edge chromium)
As far as I understand, the native application that the extension can communicate with by using native host messaging is launched by chrome. As my win32 application is launched by the user and not by chrome, I need the native application to be a third component, launched by chrome.
What is the best way to let my win32 application communicate with my native app ? Making it a COM server is a good idea ?
I have searched on the other posts but they often talk about the native app talking to another app, not the other way.
Thank you
I would like to access Bluetooth LE devices using the corresponding UWP APIs. However, my application is a "classic" C++ application (3D game) that can't run as a UWP app. Is there a way to do that? Accorind to enter link description here these APIs are published, but I don't know the steps to access them I have only found some posts for Windows 8/8.1 apps that include the Windows.winmd and Platform.winmd metadata files and set the /ZW compilation flag, but this doesn't seem to apply to Windows 10.
You should be able to do this, as the Bluetooth classes (e.g., BluetoothLEAdvertisement) are marked up with DualApiPartitionAttribute (callable from desktop and UWP apps).
Using one of the older Win8.1 desktop samples should give you a good starting point for calling the APIs without requiring /ZW or referencing the winmd files. A good example is the desktop toast API sample.
If you go that route, you can use classic COM to create the UWP/WinRT classes via WRL helpers.
You can use the web that you make a web server and the C++ application use the same server and if UWP send the info to server then it will send the info to C++ application.
To safe,the UWP can't use the desktop app.
my question might be crazy, I know it has to be something like COM, but I need to include and COM a specific version of Web browser in my application no matter what version of the browser the computer currently is using, say to include IE7(dll file or whatever) in the project and COM programming it as a window in C++ application to surf web pages on internet although the default browser in client machine is IE9. And deploy the compiled project with IE7 file(s) to client machines. If IE/COM won't work that way, any other browsers can do the tricks?
Many Thanks!

No, you cannot "embed" a specific version of Internet Explorer in your application. But you probably don't need to: when you use the IE COM WebBrowser Control in your application, by default it runs in IE7 Compatibility mode. Later modes are only used if you explicitly set the FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION registry key listing your executable name.

I have developed an application that will need to access a web service.
I will be developing the web service. However, the platform will be Ubuntu running Apache Tomcat server.
I have 2 questions:
1) Can I deploy a MS XML web service to run on a Ubuntu Server?
2) If I can't. I will have to develop a Java Web Service. However, my application that is written in VS C# 2005 will need to access it will be a windows application. How can my application access a Java Web Service?
Many thanks for any advice,
If you want cross-platform compatibility, you can only deploy .net code that runs under Mono. The best way to check this is to actually develop the code under Mono and use Mono to test it. So, don't use Visual Studio. Sorry.
There is no problem with interfacing pieces of code written in two different languages. You can use XMLRPC, a RESTful API, or a proprietary protocol. I'm sure there are other ways for the two to "talk", as well.
