Thanks a lot. This is really cool. Also interesting how C# comes up SO much more than VB7. Cheers, Simon X-5 452 rules.

Anyone can create subdomains. Like I can create yahoo.busterboy.org and maybe even codeproject.busterboy.org. It's really easy, if you have your own DNS. Nish Sonork ID 100.9786 voidmain www.busterboy.org If you don't find me on CP, I'll be at Bob's HungOut

I don't think Java's going to disappear. Like C++, there's just too much stuff written with it already. Microsoft even came out with this J# which basically, if nothing else, perpetuates the language's syntax. I think people will be having .NET vs J2EE arguments for a long time to come.

The funny thing is that there's another group of open-source people (unrelated to the Mono project), who are doing similar stuff. Don't have any links at hand, however. Tomasz Sowinski -- http://www.shooltz.com

Of course not John. Did I say that? But so many people act like Sun/Netscape/Linux/Oracle are our saviors and will lead us to the promised land. The only things these guys are leading us to is our checkbook. Tim Smith Descartes Systems Sciences, Inc.

Very Interesting, have a look also at SalCentral Serge :)

Thanks for the example. In my earlier posts, I neglected to point out that C# does support a variant of generic programming; since everything is be derived from the type "object", an object reference can point to any type in the type system. This means you can write a collection that stores any type, and you can write object persistance code (though serialization is built into the framework, so you don't need to). This is type safe, but it isn't compile-time typesafe; that would be one of the benefits of a real generics implementation.

I felt fairly confident about the material for exam 70-100, so I just used the Exam Cram book for review and the Transcender test. If you can't get the Transcender test, at least download the sample test (its free) from MS. The formatting of the questions on 70-100 is different from any other test on the MCSD track. Good luck.
