Generated IL Differences For VB And C#
Aug 26, 2011
Today I was playing around with Entity Framework and I've read that the generated IL for C# was different than VB.NET for the following code:
[code]...
As it seems the VB.NET version of this code will contact the database every time the code is executed while the C# version will retrieve the entities from the cache when the code is executed multiple times.Why would they make both languages behave in such a different manner?It was my misconception that both languages just differed in syntax and had almost exactly the same generated IL.Are there any more examples where both languages generated such different IL?

What are the differences between 32 and 64-bit .NET (4) applications?Often 32-bit applications have problems running on 64-bit machines and conversely. I know I can declare an integer as int32 and int64 (certainly int64 on 32-bit systems make problems). Are there other differences between programming an 32 OR 64-bit or a both 32 AND 64-bit compatible application?

Would like to build an application and was wondering why someone would choose one language over another.Also is one language used more for a particular type of programming then another (For example, is VB used more for business or Windows development then for web development ?)

We have legacy character codes that we want to store as numbers in a new system. To increase readibility and general understanding in the code for devs making the migration, I want to do Enums like this..
[Code]...
With this setup, the code will be readable (imagine If Record.Status = Status.Open), and yet the values will be stored in the database as small numbers so it will be efficient. However... I am a VB.NET guy, but everybody wants to code in C#, so I need this sort of structure in C#.After Googling, I discovered the the general .NET equivalent of AscW is Convert.ToInt32("C"). When I try to use that statement in an enum, I get the compiler error "Constant Expression Required".

in order for me to get help on me and my programming partners vb6 rpg, I have to upgrade the project to the vb.net platform, and I am worried that the IDE interface that is used to program the vb side of the rpg is different, so I am wanting to ask any of you if there are any significant changes to the IDE or if it is relatively the same as it was in vb6... I am also hoping that someone here can also help me to see what is wrong with my load/save function... I now thought of something to try to see if that is the issue or not, but the code is still vb6 code, the only difference will be that the program will be upgraded to the .net platform, so if that changes anything in the code, then I am not aware of this as of yet, because I am still downloading the visual studios 2010 express iso right now... so I do not know for sure yet what will be changed.

i'm using Enumerable.Except to check if a DataTable in memory is in sync with the table in database.
The background is: this DataTable and other frequently used tables are stored in the Cache of a WebApplication. But meanwhile i'm convinced that this is not a good approach because it's a source for nasty errors that are difficult to reproduce/debug.
Therefore i've created a function that checks if database and memory are in sync, otherwise an error-log will be created. This works perfectly. If there is a row in memory that is not in database, this row will be shown below "Difference in database", the same applies in reverse. But if rows exist in both datasources(the PK idRMA) and some values differ, the log will contain this row in two versions(below "Difference in database" and "Difference in database"). It is not easy to see the differences on the first sight.
Q: Is it possible to select only the properties that caused Except to think that first sequence is not in second?
This is the the complete function(the first lines are relevant):
Public Shared Sub CheckRmaMemoryInSyncWithDB()
Dim inSyncText As String
Dim color As Drawing.Color

I have 2 text boxes and I load a text file in to each box, the files contents are "almost" exactly the same but not 100%. how would i compare the 2 against eachother and output the difference in percentage? I've made a program once before it was pretty cool it did all these things and it was in VB.Net i just cant remember how i did it.. i do know i counted how many of the sames words exist but i cant remember what else i did.

In VB, when we adding a new references - in my case web references -, it simply type namespace followed by the class name to make a new object.For example:
Dim obj As NamespaceName.ClassName = New NamespaceName.ClassName
Then I apply this concept in C#. So my code will be:
NamespaceName.ClassName obj = new NamespaceName.ClassName
...and it doesn't work.Actually, is there any difference about Importing Namespace between those two?And also can you give me a little explanation about Project-Wide Default Namespace Imports in VB?
UPDATE:My point is why "In C#, When I've typed NamespaceName, the ClassName was not listed in the Intellisense?".However, it did well in VB, do I have to import something?Maybe, there is something to do with the term "Project-Wide Default Namespace Imports". (CMIIW)

After I have programmed several projects in VB.Net I to my surprise discovered that there are some more than subtle differences between C# and VB.NET LINQ usage.For example, if we want to group elements by multiple properties (columns) we need to create a new anonymous type explicitly:
var procs = from c in Process.GetProcesses()
group c by new {c.BasePriority, c.Id} into d
select d;
whereas in VB.NET more straightforward syntax will already do:
Dim b = From c In Process.GetProcesses()
Group c By c.BasePriority, c.Id Into Group
Select Group
So, one does not need to create a type with "new" here. What are the other differences? good comparison between the LINQ syntax in C# and VB.NET?

NET gurus... How would you convert this very chunk into VB?
[Code]...
When I use an online converter (Telerik), the middle line converts like this: Me.timer.Elapsed += New System.Timers.ElapsedEventHandler(ManageThreads) with 2 errors:
1- "Public eventElapsed is an event and cannot be called directly. Use raiseEvent
2- Delegate requires an Adess Of expression. Do I simply add "Address Of" ?

know where I can get a list of the differences between VB.Net versions? For example, in which version were generics first introduced, and when did the "Using" keyword come into being?
I've tried googling it and all I seem to get are the differences between VB6 and VB.Net, which isn't what I'm after.

I have noticed that the immediate window in VS 2010 behaves differently when debugging a C# project and a VB.NET project, although I haven't been able to find any specific documentation of this difference.
For C# projects, I can simply type in any expression, and it will be evaluated and displayed, i.e.
[Code]...
All other expressions exhibit the same behavior, including simple math such as '1 + 2'. Sometimes the error message is different though, as 1 + 2 results in the error 'Labels that are numbers must be followed by colons.'Is there a way to 'fix' this behavior and make the VB.NET immediate window behave more like the C# one? Having to type a ? in front of every statement can be a pain when using it frequently.

Now that C# supports named parameters, I was checking to see if it was implemented the same way VB did it, and found that there is a slight difference. Take for example a library function like this:
public static void Foo(string a, string b)
{
Console.WriteLine(string.Format("a: {0}, b: {1}", a, b));
}
[code].....
The way VB does it requires much fewer instruction calls, so is there any advantage to the way C# implements it? If you don't use the named parameters, C# produces the same thing as VB.
EDIT: Now that we've determined that the extra instructions go away in release mode, is there a particular reason for them to be present in debug mode? VB acts the same in both modes, and C# doesn't insert the extra instructions when calling the method normally without named parameters (including when you use optional parameters).
