    Hi, I just asked myself what might be the future of C#? Is the language going to be around for the next 5 years or maybe more? Hope someone has an answer

    Exactly like .Net C# will be there for next 5 to 10 years at-least. Many feel shaken on their job status by this question. Sorry for those down-votes from others :rose:

      If so, please send your resume here to the VA. We always need more MUMPS programmers. :laugh:

      It's the VA from whom I heard about the MUMPS/Cache connection.

        Most times have been good, however the best is the present, by its very nature. :)

        Please use <PRE> tags for code snippets, they preserve indentation, improve readability, and make me actually look at the code.

        I'd agree, but I've been doing VB.net for the last nine months. X|

          VB.NET isn't that bad, make sure strict on applies to everything (I know you had it set up by default), then pretend it is C# and you'll be fine... :)

            Yeah, right... I ran up against the exclamation point (!) operator today -- I asked around and no one knew what it was so I had to look it up. I'll stick with C#, thank you very much.

              A little cheat card can go a long way. The nastiest difference I found between VB.NET and C# is documented here[^]. :)

                Or how the behaviour of ToString for enums in VB doesn't match the documentation.

                  At least we are thinking about moving it off VMS and onto Windows and/or Linux. We might even upgrade our VGA monitors. Kidding. :laugh:
