Subject: RE: VB vs C# is there a auto documenting feature in C#


Liz,

Back to your original question - the differences
between C# and VB.Net. MS released a white paper on
this last summer, which can be downloaded from:

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=308470

It's not that helpful for your cause, however, unless
you really need to write unmanaged code or do bit
fiddling. So, I don't think that you'll be able to
convince your manager from a technical perspective.

Looking at the problem from your manager's
perspective:
1. Manager knows some VB so is going to feel more
comfortable with VB.Net.
2. Manager doesn't know C#, so managing a project
written in it may make him/her feel less knowledgable
about (or in control of) the project.
3. A project written in 2 languages is likely to be
seen as a higher maintenance risk by the manager.

Allaying your manager's concerns on these issues will
likely get you farther than debating the technical
merits.

As a last resort, you could take my old college
buddy's advice on persuasion: "When in doubt, lie. If
that doesn't work, lie harder." Needless to say, he
works in sales now. ;-)

-Nick
