[RESOLVED] The end of Visual Basic

[JuggaloBrotha]

Not true: parts of it are C++, parts of it even in VB.Net.

Nearly true though.

The actual compilers and most tools, the CLR, and big parts of the IDE are C++.

I was told by an MS person in the vbf slow chat that the FW was made all in c#, the CLR was made in c++ and the VS IDE was made in c# & vb.net

So according to MS, the FW was made in c# like I said.

Not that much of that really matters much.


I'm still awaiting the Grand Reunification of .Net with Java. Then we might end up with a single language hybridizing Java and C#.

Hmmm, a unification between MS and Oracle. I highly doubt that'd ever happen, let alone a "reunification".
