C# & VB.NET
-
These two languages now are linked so they get updated at the same time by the same people. Why do I think one is going to reach it's limit of supportable life sooner than the other. If history is a teacher my bet would be C# as Microsoft have made more money from BASIC over the years my guess would be C# dies first, but what of the Java people. Make me recall an interview I went to some years ago "we use J# rather than any other language as it will have support for longer as it is Java based"... Glenn
My guess is C# will be culled first... because thats the one we're using and prefer! :laugh: Lately Microsoft seem to be making a habit of pulling the rug from under us :mad: - so it really wouldn't surprise me.

Yup, I jumped from VB to C# I don't want to have to go back...

I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific.

I worked at Microsoft from 2008 to 2012 and have never seen anybody using VB.NET. C# was used quite a lot: for internal projects and even some software sold to customers (SharePoint, etc).

IIRC seeing official posts on msdn blogs listing at least major product that MS was selling written using each of the major .net languages (C#, VB.net, C++.net) as part of official dogfooding. I can't say I'm surprised that aside from the token VB.net project they've avoided it like the plague. :rolleyes:
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt

Other than C# being replaced by something even better but still with C in its name I don't think C# is going away. Whatever follows VB.net will still be called VB-something.

Sounds like C#++ is coming up ;P

I didn't know they had kilts and big swords chopping heads off in Matrix - I'll have to watch it again.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.
Well Neo, any reason is enough...

I find it funny that even T-SQL comes before Javascript... :laugh:

So are M$ doing a three horse race VB.Net for starters, C# for nerds in training, C++ for uber geeks...
