C# From a Java Developer's Perspective

A COMPARISON OF
MICROSOFT'S C# PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE
TO SUN MICROSYSTEMS' JAVA PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE
I am having to write some Web apps for work, both for us to attack, and to assist internal development and testing. I did some ASP Back In The Day, and found it clusmy at best. I am pretty impressed with writting ASP .NET pages with C#. Impressed only because MS finally caught up to Java/JSP 8 years late after a little stop to try and kill it along the way. Sure there are some features of .NET that I am not even touching, but for 90% of what I am doing, its a clean rip of Java. And forget this is ".NET is available for multiple languages." That like saying you can compile Perl to Java byte code. Sure, but you will make your Perl so nasty in the process, why bother. If you code.NET, you pretty much have to code in Microsoft Java ... I mean C#. |

-I like the Java like nature of it, but that it completes to (basically) native code.
-I like that more object functionality is accessible as properties instead of gets/sets.
-I like how easy it is to import and access DLLs. So far, Its like a cleaner version of Java to me. Then again, I haven't started using the language in any c# specific way I guess. I do not like trying to use the .NET framework from any other language, especially C++! |

In today's world you need to build more complex code, faster, in less time. .NET and Java are the two languages that let you do that... I'd say .NET has the edge right now due to the IDE (vs.net2k3) being so far vastly superior to anything else. |
