VB.NET 2.0 Rocks - Smaller than C#

I am teaching a Ascend class on VS2005 in Paris now (June 27,2005).

Started a VB vs C# discussion.

One of the guys said VB.NET used to gen noop lines in msil and it bloated the exe in 1.1.

So he tried it in 2.0. Now VB does not do it but C# does so the C# exe is larger than the VB one.

3 cheers for the VB team.

It doesn't really matter in either case though does it? They are there to help debugging (breakpoints) and when you compile in release mode/configuration they go away...

Hey, but VB.NET adds a lot of code to support the My pseudo-Namespace Feature, so VB.NET generated EXEs are actually a lot bigger out of the box than C# generated EXEs.

P.S. I'm not flaming VB because I myself am a case insensitiveness Addict who can't tolerate Flower Braces:D Blog More:D

I don't understand why the code from your CD is not on the website http://www.32x.com. The book and CD are filled with refereces to this website, yet there is nothing on this site with which to base your teaching exept a Casino of some sort which lay in it's place
