Language specific

Microsoft’s .NET offers an alternative to Java and J2EE. Microsoft’s Visual studio .NET development environment incorporates over 20 different languages including RPG, COBOL and Microsoft’s own C# for business programming. With all languages compiling to a common language runtime, .NET enables developers to create XML Web services and integrate mobile devices and servers. Functional programming [...]

ASP

The analysis used here assumes that the development of ASP may be similar to that of the IT industry. Surprisingly, as the material shows, this assumption works well as it turns out that most up-to-date ASP developments truly resemble the events in the history of IT, although they are occurring at a faster pace. The [...]

Asp.net

ASP.NET is probably one of the most exciting things about .NET from a developer’s perspective. ASP has been totally redone from the ground up. Many developers made the jump from regular ASP to .NET immediately, drawn in by the all too familiar Microsoft hype and the promises of cross-platform compatibility, rapid and robust development, and [...]

C#

C# is a modern and innovative programming language, one which carefully incorporates features found in the most common industry and research languages. In keeping with the design philosophy of C#, Microsoft has introduced several potential new features to the C# language that increase developer productivity with language constructs. Microsoft plans to build on an already [...]

C++

C++ will be around for a long time. It’ll be used forever by embedded systems programmers and programmers who write traditional kinds of apps. Bjarne Stroustrup, who currently works as a professor at Texas A&M University and is creator of the C++ programming language, said: “C++ is bigger than ever.”There are more than 3 million [...]

VC++

Microsoft’s goal is to have a ‘competitively compliant’ compiler – meaning it won’t be 100% compliant. There are a couple of features of the ANSI/ISO standard (for instance the ‘export’ keyword as applied to template classes) that won’t be implemented because they are considered by Microsoft to be obscure and, at this stage, theoretical. Microsoft [...]

PHP

Zeev Suraski, one of the founders of PHP, said that the simplicity of this scripting language means it will be more popular than Java for building Web-based applications. About 22 million Web sites employ it, and usage is steadily increasing. The fact that PHP is an open source programming language makes a great case against [...]

Ruby

Yukihiro Matsumoto (“Matz”), the creator of Ruby, is a professional programmer who worked for the Japanese open source company, netlab.jp. Matz is also known as one of the open source evangelists in Japan. He’s released several open source products, including email, the emacs-based mail user agent, written entirely in emacs lisp. Ruby is his first [...]

Carbon

Mac OS is focusing on Carbon for its future development, for a solid, modern operating system, and good news also for the developers who want to preserve their investment in many years of development, as almost all-professional Mac design software is Carbon. It looks also like Apple should freeware Carbon API’s and stuff it on [...]

ColdFusion

Coldfusion is not dead. I’m not saying this just because I program in CF but because I have programmed in many languages and they all have its advantages and disadvantages. Languages like FORTRAN and Pascal are still being used. Of course not as much as Java, CF or VB and that’s because the technology has [...]
