Visual Basic.NET or C#? Which to Choose?
Most of todays Visual Basic and C++ developers are currently facing the decision of which language to choose when migrating to Microsofts new .NET platform. On one hand you have Visual Basic.NET, a successor to Visual Basic that has been redesigned from the ground up to work seamlessly with .NET, even at the price of no longer being compatible with VB6. On the other hand you have C#, a brand new language. Which of these two languages should you choose for your .NET development? The answers will surprise you.
But the technical comparison is only the beginning. With a keen eye to the business issues involved in language choice, the author focuses on the economic issues involved in this decision, considering the cost of retraining and long term support as well as that of initial development.
In the final part of this E-Book, Appleman offers solid strategies for four different groups of readers: current Visual Basic 6 programmers, current C++ or Java programmers, managers of Visual Basic developent teams, and managers of C++/Java development teams. By considering not only technical and economic issues, but also social and psychological issues, the author provides the kind of practical real-world information that is almost impossible to find in an industry dominated by conflicting interests and marketing hype.
This E-Book is an essential resource for developers and managers alike who are considering Microsofts .NET platform.
