When I say cost, I mean: because c# requires explicit types, the code is full of a large number of type conversion functions, which makes the code bloated and verbose. This makes C# unable to be...

Your method works. Thank you, The trick.

Currently, there are three solutions:

(1) Use Variant instead of array

(2) Preallocate global EmptyStringArray and EmptyParamModifierArray

(3)...

Thank you, wqweto.

For now, it seems to be the best way to preallocate global EmptyStringArray and EmptyParamModifierArray.

Yes, there are a lot of costs to using Variant, for example:

(1) Use a longer variable name to describe the type of array elements in the Variant, for example: Modifiers_As_ParameterModifierArray...

Yes, Variant is an amazing thing. Maybe I can define function parameters like this:



Public Function BindToMethod(ByVal BindingAttr As BindingFlags, _

I'm thinking about the cost of explicit type and if there is a better solution than C# when it comes to type casting.

Some people say that C# is the ceiling of object-oriented programming, but...

I'm not trying to prove anything, just having some thoughts while reading the C# code, just wondering why it does it this way, or why it doesn't do it better?

Whether I like C# or not, it's just a...

Thank you, wqweto.

Yes, this is a viable approach and the one I'm currently using. But the problem is, I have hundreds of classes now, and may have thousands in the future, which means I need to...

My sample code is from Reflection\CustomAttribute.cs in Microsoft .NET4.8

I think a really concise and elegant language should look like this:

C#


private static RuntimeType Type_RuntimeType = typeof(RuntimeType);
private static RuntimeType Type_Type =...

Thank you, Elroy.

Yes, Variant is a valid solution, the disadvantage of this solution is that the specific data type of the array elements cannot be explicitly defined in the function parameter...

In function parameters, sometimes there are array parameters of different data types. When calling these functions, sometimes we need to pass an empty-array to the functions, for example:


...

Some people say that C# code is very concise and elegant. But the ubiquitous "casting" in C# code makes C# code seem verbose and bloated.

I've been reading a lot of C# and VB.NET code lately, and I don't think Microsoft's .NET designers understand the essence of Basic-Lang. This makes VB.NET unacceptable not only by VB6ers, but also by...

I'm sorry I didn't express my meaning clearly.

What I want to say is that in the database field (or management software field), the need for class inheritance is very low, to be precise, the need...

VB6 has many advantages in the field of database operation. Olaf has done many demos in this thread and many others.

If it were me, I would use my new VB6 code to access the database directly,...

My approach is to provide full implementations for interfaces through a "code generator", which is easy to implement in a transpiler.

TypeScript allows to provide "dynamic interfaces" (optional...

Very good point of view, thank you, Olaf.

Yes, we sometimes need to give up something in the process of translation. For those syntactic features that cannot be translated I'll try to implement them in my transpilers, such as LINQ and XAML....

It's really weird if "n" stands for "new".

I see some function names in Microsoft's codebases are prefixed with the letter "n" and I wonder why? Thanks!

VBCorLib is an awesome VB6 code library from which I learned a lot of useful stuff. But VBCorLib lacks three important class libs:

(1) Drawing

(2) WinForms (including Controls and UserControls)...

I'm thinking about a question: what if we use VB6 to emulate all the .NET Common-Controls, or use .NET to emulate VB6 Common-Controls?



.NET just encapsulates API calls, and .NET provides a lot...

Nice sample code. If I want to use VB6 to implement the above code, my approach is to simulate .NET to write a System.ServiceProces lib (including ServiceBase class) and System.Threading lib.

Sorry, my question was not rigorous enough.

When I talk about .NET, it can be either C# or VB.NET, because almost all VB.NET code can be converted to C#, and 99% of C# code can be converted to VB.NET. So, either the C# example or the VB.NET...

I guess Olaf might be able to provide a neat solution. There are several Event-related classes in RC6, but we don't know how to use them: cEventInfo, cEventCollection, cOOEventListener.

This is a continuation of thread VB6 to .NET, but I'm more interested in ".NET to VB6"

I'm thinking about a question: it's really difficult to convert VB6 to VB.NET, so, will it be less difficult...

Sorry for the late reply.

It seems very reasonable that cs stands for "case-sensitive".

Thank you to everyone involved in this thread. Thank you Niya, yereverluvinuncleber, peterst, wqweto,...

@Niya, @yereverluvinuncleber,

It seems odd to interpret cs as "Coding Standards".

Note:
The code sample I posted is from Microsoft.

I see some dictionary variables are prefixed with "cs", I'd like to know what does this "cs" stand for? Thanks !



Dictionary<String, RuntimeEventInfo> csEventInfos;
