It is very hard for us to support every Windows compiler, so we try to choose the most current and popular compilers. We are depreciating our support for Visual Studio 6.0 and .NET 2003 in favor of Visual Studio 2005, and in the future, 2008. Moving to new compilers also means we can take advantage of new features and make the build process even easier. For example, we now support building on 64-bit Windows and Windows Vista using Visual Studio 2005.

J. Henshaw asks "Is it possible to run both VB6 and VB.Net on the same machine,or do I have to remove VB6 to be able to use VB.NET", and the answer is a definite yes. You can run them both on the same machine. Many people, including myself, run VB6 on the same machine as their installation of Visual Basic .NET. If you look at this KB article from Microsoft Support, you will even see that it recommended to run VB6 and VB.NET on the same machine when upgrading projects from one to another.

The service has been tested with a C# client auto-generated from WSDL by the wsdl.exe tool. It should work fine from any .NET language.

This project is my hobby and the last thing I want to do in my spare time was use a language or environment I don't enjoy (I code on Macs during the day, and that's enough pain ^_^). I like C#, and I love Visual Studio. Just about any argument you can create against it can be countered, so don't even try. If you don't like it, you don't have to use it; I know that this is certainly my philosophy with other languages/environments!

Yes. Eiffel for .NET can be used in exactly the same way as classic Eiffel and no extra language constructs are required to produce applications. Since there are some elements of the .NET language which have no equivalents in Eiffel, such as the ability to define custom attributes, these have been extended to Eiffel for .NET so that the full features of .NET can be used. Eiffel Software (a division of ISE) is the world leader in Eiffel pure object-oriented programming tools.

EiffelEnvision brings strengths in several areas that result in significant benefits to the developer: Eiffel's "code once, run on many platforms" feature provides "future proofing" for companies using .NET: their users can migrate applications to and from different platforms, and can also use component libraries across platforms. Eiffel brings quite a few unique and powerful features to .NET. Most noticeably it is the only .NET language to offer multiple inheritance and genericity.
