MS trying to make tools/features available in both languages?

If you want something available in both languages, you merely make it part of the common framework and it's shared by any .NET language.

This seems like something more that that. It looks like they want to make the languages themselves similar. The result of that will mostly likely be a still born VB.

It is obviously a cost saving measure of some kind. Supporting only one .NET language is doubtless more efficient than two. It remains to be seen how far and silly they'll go with it.

I tend 2 agree with Baavgai

Let's start an official anti VB/C#.NET merge petition. I'm totally against it, I love C# and despise VB. They're just gonna create some average shite that I won't care for any more.

[RodgerB]

They're giving both languages the same features, not turning C# into something like this...

For(Integer i=0; To 6)
{
	MessageBox.Show(CStr(i));
	End;
}

Shudders at the thought...

Yeah, good god, how hard was it to write that??

Anyone else have the sudden urge to gouge your eyeballs out?

Bug: It'll only display the message once.

As long as I get still get my work done, it doesn't make any difference to me.

I always wanted to learn C#.... Just started to master VB.NET... shucks... got to go out and spend another $60 on a book... lol

Do you know how many tree of usless Microsoft Press books I own?

I'm really out of prac.. I just worked that out when I looked over it today.

No body has called me a sad <beep> for debugging at this stage a fictional language.

EditAt least not in polite society.

private static string vbpluscsharp()
{
 dim i as integer;
 String str
 str=Nothing;
 if (str not = Nothing)
  {
   MsgBox("C#");
  }
else
  {
  MessageBox.Show("VB.Net")
  }
}
MessageBox("VB & C# are Merged")
