Sometimes, IMHO, it is... (Javascript strong typing is a crap; eveyone here will disagree, I know, but I don't bother about...). :)

I'm waiting for strongly typed JS. Bring on the code complete!

Then you don't need to wait anymore. They [^] have already done it. :-D

Doesn't look like it's cross platform. :S

There's no such thing as strong typing. It's all just a bunch of 1s and 0s.

My boss is pretty hard on his keyboard. (Must be compensation.)

Wrong! Unless you are talking about how hard you hit the keys on your keyboard.

What are you talking about? If you are talking about variable type checking in C++, then you are wrong. I wish C was as tight with its type checking. Then again I wish C would allow me to declare a variable where ever I wanted too, instead of forcing me to create a new scope. P.S. I liked C, but I love C++.

I am not sure either...

I prefer to have all the declarations in one place (the top) so in C# I still do that by choice. But requiring such isn't very friendly, flexibility is good.

Same here, sure beats having to browse through the code looking for the declarations...

I agree requiring such is not varying friendly, and is a real pain int the <blank>. Here are some thoughts to consider when writing you code.: 1) In C you can wrap a variable declaration in a scope and if that scope is not entered then no space is allocated on the stack for it (saves cycles and memory). This applies to languages other than C, including C#. 2) In C++ you can wrap a class (variable) declaration in a scope and if that scope is not entered then the constructor and destructor are not called.

I hate that. Although it probably doesn't help that most of the functions i see doing it are hundreds of lines long, making it a real chore to track down declarations and ensure variables are being used correctly.

Yeah, if you can't the declaration then your method is too big (size matters). On the other hand, if they're all at the top, they're easy to find.

Lol I think I was using C# for about 4 months before I realized I didn't have to do it. Its a tough choice though, all declarations at the top make it much easier for someone to come in and read your code, whereas its easier to code when I can make a variable whenever I need one. You can definitely look at my code and see the days on which I was lazy, because there is nothing in our coding guidelines about where to put variable declarations.
