Why didn't you use COM for C# and VB.NET? And why even bother?

FAQ
I don't even know myself. I was doing some work in that area on another project and the API seemed to be nice and clean that it was fairly straight forward to do. It could have been done as a COM object, but each call needs to be marshaled/unmarshaled with RPC and there is a performance hit. The API is wrapped up, so in the end doesn't really matter. And there is no COM registration required. It is interesting doing language bindings - see the files in bindings/generate_SWIG_interface.

Ali Parvaresh asks: How can I document VB.NET source codes like what you do for C#?

Visual Basic Frequently Asked Questions
This is another feature scheduled for Visual Basic .NET 2005 (ref http://panopticoncentral.net/archive/2003/11/08/239.aspx). In the meantime, however, there are a number of third-party tools which add this capability to VB.NET 2002/2003. One popular (and free) alternative is the VBCommenter PowerToy. Sadly, the VB team failed to consult me while they were designing the language, so I can't comment on why they decided not to support operator overloading in VB.

Do you prefer C# or VB.NET?

Donald Lee | Technical Interview Questions & FAQ

Recently, I have been heavily involved in C# and find I enjoy it a great deal. Overall, it's expresses object oriented concepts more naturally, it's easier to find code samples in written C#, and has better support for running on Unix via the Mono Project.

Should I choose VB.NET or C#?

FAQ for the microsoft.public.languages.csharp newsgroup
The choice between C# and VB.NET is largely one of subjective preference. Some people like C#'s terse syntax, others like VB.NET's natural language, case-insensitive approach. Both have access to the same framework libraries. Both will perform largely equivalently (with a few small differences which are unlikely to affect most people, assuming VB.NET is used with Option Strict on). Learning the .

Is there a fuller comparison between C# and VB.NET?

FAQ for the microsoft.public.languages.csharp newsgroup
Microsoft provides a very full language equivalents page which compares not only C# and VB.NET, but also other languages targeted at the .NET framework. It looks at the equivalent concepts, keywords, types, operators etc. A very valuable resource when you're trying to read or write code in a language which isn't your preferred one.
