C# questions
Posted by stuffradio, 12-08-2007, 10:23 PM |
Is this programming language worth learning? What are some benefits of using it compared to C/C++?

1) Yes, there is a much bigger demand for it than VB.NET.
2) You can't compare C# to C/C++ (apples and oranges). C# manages memory for you, in C/C++ you have to write code to reserve memery by using pointers.
I never undersand the questions like "what language should I learn or which language is the best?". It all depends on what you are trying to achieve.

I understand where you are getting at with your annoyance.
I want to make web applications, like try and make a chat type thing. With sockets, etc. Just so I can play around with it.

Well, no harm can come from trying it. And C# is definitely a language that can achieve what you're after.

C# would be good as you will find a lot of examples on the internet. Just make sure that you really need to deal with sockets if you are just creating a web application. Typically you do not need to do it.
If you are looking for a chat solution. Just search for free ajax chat solutions available in C#.

Oh, by no means is it the only option but I was just answering in the scope of the original question
Having said that, HTML isn't really an ideal medium for a chat program.
Perhaps a Java applet or (heaven forfend) an ActiveX control would make for a more pleasant experience?

You are correct. But I saw a couple of nice chat software build using AJAX - look very good and work smoothly. Do not recommend ActiveX, it will not work on firefox

I guess you may find many opensource chat solutions in the Internet. Just pick up more appropriated whatever lanuage it use and adjust it to your needs, studing that language.
