Rename to C#deproject!

urrrm I agree, crap articles are being posted by the handful, it seems the editors should be deleting crap articles will less that 2 lines of explaination. X| I feel the site should be split between C++ / C# / ASP.NET. Maybe the real software engineers can focus on good content in the C++ site. Just a thought to brighten up the day :(

Technically speaking the dictionary would define Visual Basic users as programmers.
But here again, a very generalized, liberal definition is being employed and it's wrong

Did C# really make life that easier???!!! :) Why was it named C#? Any one knows that the sign (#) means "sharp" and it is used in the music and standard notations? It's been so long that only C# stuff are getting posted! May be time for renaming the www.codeproject.com, a www.c#deproject.com Everytime am up on CP, I "C" C# and .NET & ASP! What's up with MFC and Win32! What to feel now? :-D X| :omg:

Anybody who uses pure Win32 nowadays really needs to wake up and smell the roses. C# isn't yet up to the job of replacing MFC, but for web-based applications there isn't anything to touch it. Sadly even with all the failures, people seem to be pursing the web application dream. I really feel for the WTL boys, such a good class library but one that MS has tried hard to bury. I hope the next MFC replacement fairs better. Michael Fat bottomed girls You make the rockin' world go round -- Queen

wierd - I am a C++ programmer who makes a good living even in this economic clime by using C# now. I use whatever language is good for the job (except VB - don't need to now I have C#). If he is such a die hard C++ developer what is he doing here? I assumed all die hards wouldn't trust a line of code not written by themselves and therefore community sites would be useless to them - the old NDH scenario.

hmm 4 +'s vs 2 +'s to make the logo - since we are into efficiency then I vote for 2

I was told that is was the 2 plus symbols from C++ overlapping and then it eventually became # - which as well is being 'sharp' in music - also means 'octothorpe'. also it is not surprising that C# stuff is being posted most of the things have already been done in MFC and ATL etc that people would find it hard to write anything new. If you want to make article writing easier, just wander through the MFC stuff and rewrite them in C# - instant article minimum effort - I'd do it myself but I can't be bothered.

Hmmm, would you like it to be filtered even further? David

Come on, there are still lots of good articles in C++. Look at This great article[^], for an example :cool: I see dumb people

Yes, but what is there left to say about MFC ? You can filter CP on the main page to show you MFC/C++ stuff if that's all you want to see. Personally, I think there is still a good mix, tending towards the stuff the most people are now learning and using. Christian No offense, but I don't really want to encourage the creation of another VB developer. - Larry Antram 22 Oct 2002 C# will attract all comers, where VB is for IT Journalists and managers - Michael P Butler 05-12-2002 Again, you can screw up a C/C++ program just as easily as a VB program. OK, maybe not as easily, but it's certainly doable. - Jamie Nordmeyer - 15-Nov-2002
