Since there is no forum for it yet I thought I'd post it here.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/ne...sharpintro.asp
It's a bit like C++ without the mess or C with classes done properly, It's MS's new language going for standardisation and it'll be in the next version of Visual Studio. (no I'm not an MS salesman)
Pointers are gone for normal data types, instead there are reference Vars (int, float, long etc) and Values Vars (array, struct, object)
It's suppoesed to be a RAD interface like VB but with lower level power for those who want it. The reviews look good (but then they always do)
Anyone know much about it or have any opinions on it?
I'm always interesed in something new and we all know Java is a waste of time...
John... Any chance of a C# forum when it comes out?
(Just feeling the water so to speak)

You are late ..
Paul ,
I Posted this info just 2 days ahead of you..
Checkout if you want..
Paul you need to help me with this..
Can a Class C network have more than one gateway to
another Class C network. If so, then which path will a
TCP/IP packet take from one network to the other.
This may be simple to you ..but i badly need the answer.
-
I suppose, yeah. The packet will follow route for whichever IP address is set as it's default gateway. So, if you have two routers on a segment (class C doesn't matter, the segment will be defined by the subnet mask, routers etc) and both routers send traffic to another segment then on a local system the default gateway will be set to one of the routers (or sepecific static routes set, type "Route Print" or "IPCONFIG" at command prompt on a workstation to see what it's doing.
As for C#, I was going to post something last week but... I was hoping that more information would come out. I thought I'd see if anyone knew anything more here.
-
Really looks like one of those things we should get into early so we don't get left behind :) (remember, bill gates left harvard so he didn't get "left behind" in the computer revolution. Im going to try to get this!)
-
Er, why don't we discuss this in the C/C++ section?
I hardly think something that is effectively C+++ warrants an entirely seperate forum.
Does anyone know when VS7 is to be here? MS keep on hyping the 'Next Generation' Visual Studio (of which C# is going to be a member).
-
C Sharp?
I pronounce # as "Hash" which is probably more apt!
I've got a text book on Computer Design which calls # a "pound sign" - weird!
-
I guess its marginally better than 'see-plus-plus-plus' :D
What about an F-sharp-minor forum, and A-flat for that matter...
-
MS have a big sign saying it's pronounces C Sharp, As in music.
If they don't deliver a screenshot of the RAD though It'll be named E flat!
It's not really C+++, it's less complex than C++ and it's supposed to leverage the C and C++ skill set for a high productivity environment (ie a RAD) It looks to compete with Delphi Borland C++ Builder, but it's a new language as C++ is a little dated and Java is not Wintel (and J++ is a load of Dingoes Kidneys)
I think it looks good, and from their efforts to move it though the Euro Standards group, other vendors will pick it up and unix ports may appear too (if it's that good)
It's about time MS leveraged their skill set and built something from scratch.
-
Paul,
Could you describe the concept of CLS and the .NET platform?
My understanding is that it exposes common components that can be used by any Visual Studio language.
-
Can I get back to you...
Girlfriends' getting surly :(

You mean:
Code:
Private WithALife VBWorldUser As Paul282
Sub VBWorldUser_GiveGirlFriendAttention(Attention)
End Sub
-
Ok, she's asleep :)
I'm definately not an authority on this but as far as I can tell the .NET is a Base class that a some of the language extends from and provides functionality for "Web" at a native level - whatever the hell that means! probably that part of it extend directly from the wsock32 like MFC does for the standard API plus server stuff (native TCP stack access??) too. The documentation is still a little vague amd I'm not a beta tester so I'm sort of just speaking out of my ass here.
There looks to be a sort of Java like standard class structure which will take some getting used to, I'm not good at being trapped in an OO environment (still an amateur.
It will being interesting to compare all the new features in visual studio 7 (2000?) VC++ is apparently much changed too, I like C, and the parts of C++ (all the STL stuff confuses me) but VC++ was harder than learing Japanese, so much so that I quit :(. But VB's has a big upgrade so with a bit of luck if C# is not for us then the new VB will address the major gripes of the current VB (yes we all know what they are, there've been lots of threads here)
Anyone know more about C# ??? Pray do tell!
