    I've been coding C# since 2002, so 4 years now. If I were to take a guess at who's coded the most C#, I'd pick the guy who is empirically the most zealous about the .NET platform, the CLR, and the C# language. The guy who embraces it wholeheartedly and religiously. The guy who makes it his life to eat, breathe, and sleep .NET code. As I'm sure you've guessed by now, I'm talking about John Simmons / Outlaw Programmer. ;)

      Just curious who's coded a lot of C#? I'm sure I've typed in over 250,000 loc in C# since 2003 (no auto generating VS add-ins either). Jim

            I was simply curious. I haven't kept track of the statistic myself religiously either. A couple times over the years I ran a line counter over my source. I was just daydreaming over coffee and plugged some rough estimates together for my number in my original post. I will run a line counter at some point this afternoon for a more definate number:) Jim

                    Most of it is. I haven't found the forms designer in VS 2005 to be too terribly bad. The WebForms designer rocks now too.

                          Sounds like that interview question we used to get in the early 90's? "How many lines of C++ code have you written?" Incredibly stupid question as one of the main benefits of C++ is not reinventing the wheel constantly. Tom Archer (blog) Program Manager MSDN Online (Windows Vista and Visual C++) MICROSOFT

                            Refactoring lets you do more with less over time, so lines of code don't really count for much, but it is fun to think about over a cup of coffee. Jim

                              Partial classes are nice. Although that's the one C# 2.0 feature that I really don't care that much about.

                                I hate partial classes, then they HIDE the other part of the class "declaration" so if you declare it twice you get a run time error, not a compiler error, what's that about? Al

                                  The little I've dabbled with vs2k5, I've come to really appreciate the partial classes. No more wizard generated crap inside my perfectly hand crafted code. :-> Uh.. by the way. Do you know how to turn off that annoying message list control (the one that lists all warnings, errors and other messages from the compiler)? I want to see the text output. If I hide the message list control, it comes back as soon as I recompile. That's the kind of stuff that makes guys in their prime age (30ish) age faster... :sigh:

                                    Methinks it's: Tools->Options->Projects And Solutions->General And uncheck the Always Show Error List if build finishes with errors checkbox.
