- - VB6 vs. VB.NET (https://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=33732)

How many of you have played with the beta version of Visual Studio.NET? Thoughts? What are your thoughts on M$ deciding to include more backward compatability for VB6 than they originally planned.
Will you be using .NET when it is released, or sticking to VB6, or both. Why?

And what about C#?

It looks to me like VB.NET is turning into a real language (and it looks like ASP+ KICKS ASS). What will the 90% of VB programmers who never used any of VB6's advanced features do now that they will have to know about inheritance and polymorphism? Stick with VB6, is my guess.

Last I check, You can't avoid the Objects very much in VB6 can you? http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif Because everything is an Object http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif

Show me somethin that is not Object ... http://bbs.gofuckyourself.com/board/smile.gif

Ok, so now you answered your question.

And if they don't they are not programmers...

VB.NET is going to have real OO features? Please give details. I'm tired of every moron who can use VStudio macros to generate database "apps" calling himself a programmer.
VB might become a real language if they added inheritance and real encapsulation. Is MS finally getting a clue?

Please explain why inheritance is so important. I use it in C++ every day but I don't think it's a really important feature. Inheritances more than one level deep are vanishingly useful.

As for encapsulation, that's one of those ideas like reciprocity or empathy; one is either born with it or not. Programmers who don't see the wisdom of hiding implementation are people who should be, oh, serving hamburgers or washing bottles .. not writing code.

VB actually did more for encapsulation than C++. C++ doesn't require developers to think, but anyone writing an OCX for VB found himself unable to use global variable or turn him implementation inside out and let clients hook up to its guts. These people were dragged kicking and screaming into writing halfway-partitioned code.
