    All .NET Languages Look the Same!!! Questions

    As what i see, most .NET source code looks the same regardless of the specific language it carries. I see that way because all of them share same framework .NET which has functions, libraries, objects, etc...Am i correct?

    so why they call them in different names C++.NET, VB.NET, C#.NET ....

    If thats the case, If thats the case, why should we concern with which language to go such as VB.NET, C#.NET or C++.NET? Why isn't called .NET programming language only? Because anything under .NET shares same syntax, structure of coding.

    all the .net languages go into IL, so they should look a bit alike
    besicly its a matter of taste, for a c++ programmer, migrating to C#/c++/cli is probably easier that to start with VB.net and so forth

    so it really does not make sense then! C++.NET, C#.NET, VB.NET, each has its own compiler, so how come the syntax in .NET look the same for all of them!

    :-) waiting your reply

    Code:
    MyClass myInstance;
    looks like...
    Code:
    Dim myInstance as MyClass;
    The SYNTAX is completely different.

    As you noticed they all use the same runtime, so any livbrary routine is going to take the exact same set of parameters, every library class will have the same methods, etc.

    In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice; in practice there is.
