Plus the GNU guys have been building a C# compiler
that compiles to native code and targets native libraries (instead of a .NET [or
compatible] runtime). So one could use it instead of C++ I suppose on
Unix

That it costs anything is a common misconception:
The Microsoft C# compiler comes for free with Windows.
You can download the Visual Studio 2005 Express Editions for free for a year.
You can download other integrated development enviroments for free (such as SharpDevelop)
You canbuild C# in Mono
Yeah, Neil is 100% right.
FWIW, I'm using Scite as my editor, and lescript as my build tool.
Scite: http://www.scintilla.org/SciTE.html
lescript: http://manageddreams.com/utils/lescriptmar9.zip
Lescript lets you use C# as though it is a scripting language, ie you can do:
C:\ lescript
Hmmm,
After playing around a little with C#, I have to agree with Neil: C# rocks.
Just to throw some salt in the wounds of the Python discussions, I cant help thinking that C# has all the advantages of both Python (run from source, easy to read) and C++ (strong typing, runs quickly).
Btw, OSMP
Hello, after about a week hiatus, I returned to a little bit of work I
was doing with Python. All of a sudden the SWIG wrapper won't work for
me and I don't know why. I may have done something to break it (I have
made a few changes to vos_swig.i etc.) but I can't figure out what. I

Random aside: I've been playing with .Net at work; it's kindof cool, though
it's basically VB with a C++ syntactic sugar. I dunno why people claim that
C# means the end of VB,

At work we have a large application that incorporates Managed and
Unmanaged C++, C# and several COM objects. .Net/CLR does a pretty good
job of tying it all together without too much fuss (except for the COM
objects, which are ugly and we're

Am I correct that it's no problem to call C++ code or link against a C++
