well vinod, atleast in software service companies, lang selection is not by "user
comfort level". its more "management comfort level" ;)
- just wanted to remark on how true this is : there is that old feeling about cobol -
they use to say stuff like the language is so simple and english like that even
managers can read it. and managers said go for it. eventually the managers never read
it and the programmers got stuck with language that looked like a horror story in
english grammar.
about VB : a lot of the buisness world i feel (i havent been here very long) revolved
around this idea called RAD and ease to learn and so VB flourished. vb.net sounds like
a very intuiitive next step for that crowd. no offense meant here - they do write a
lot of parctically useful software.
c# on the other hand is a new language and is expected to have its appeal for the cpp
guys and such. well guy cpp guys stay gut cpp guys and are genarally a little picky
about things like runtimes - as for <hotwater> java many stay there cuase there is
some business there, it suits there platform or in some level of client/management
perspective are zealous about it </hotwater>.
i think for a language as new as it is c# is going places very fast and surprisingly
seems to hardly have an major desing flaws that is sending the language back to the
drawing board.
