Hi,
I am Ravindra,currently applying for jobs based on .net.
I want to know how much boom is there for .net ?
and
whether a deep knowledge in SQL server is must for a .net programmer?
please send me the details

I would think that a knowledge of ADO.NET would be good. Somethings for a "deep knowledge of SQL Server" would be index tuning, and file groups, and optimizing the database. Most .NET developers will not need this. A standard knowledge of ADO.NET and basic database skills are needed in my mind.

yea Steve, i completely agree with your views
There would be a specialized team that handles db issues.

I would be interested in any jobs involving C++/CLI, but "C++/CLI" is useless as a search term to use in searches.
Managed as in Managed C++ can appear in context unrelated to "Managed C++". CLI of course is a common TLA for Command Line Interface.
I think that the only hope for these types of jobs is to convince any company you join that has a lot of C++ code and coders who are thinking of using C# the advantages of keeping the in house knowledge and experience and staying with C++ and using C++/CLI where possible.

I have noticed that a vast majority of the jobs returned by job search engines seem to be Banking and Finance related. Whilst without any knowledge of the programming side of these types of jobs, at first glance it does not seem the kind of job I would be interested in, as I do not know what type of C++ language features usually get used in the design of such software. However this might be an ill-informed view. Can you advise me?
My current job is quite limited in the scope of what is done with C++, whilst there are classes/objects used in the applications there is not much use of inheritance. We use STL and make use of vectors,maps,sets and some associated algorithms, but not boost/loki.
Now obviously no job is always going to be using everything available, but I would like to make more use of the full power of C++.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
One last thing, I would be interested in any jobs involving C++/CLI, but it really needs a better buzzword to help in searches. Managed as in Managed C++ can appear in context unrelated to "Managed C++". CLI of course is a common TLA for Command Line Interface.
I think that the only hope for these types of jobs is to convince any company you join that has a lot of C++ code and coders who are thinking of using C# the advantages of keeping the in house knowledge and experience and staying with C++ and using C++/CLI where possible.
I will post this section again separately just in case it is easier to answer the first section without the thread drifting.

Why would you flog a dead horse? The Windows programming language is C#, at least for the next 20 years.

Well a lot of help you are, and anyway I think you should tell Herb Sutter and Nish as they obviously don't know they are wasting their time

Most likely they want you to be really good at object oriented programming and multithreaded programming. If you are applying for a server position you should also know socket programming. Managed C++ is not used here on Wall Street unless to build a wrapper around some legacy C++ code so it can be called from C# code. C# is becoming more common, specially for frontend applications.

hi all,
i have a query regd change of technology. hope u ppl will guide me properly.
i am a dot net programmer. i have been in the industry fr 2+ years now, and all through i have been working on asp.net with c#.
i changed my job 3 months back . my new company now doesnt have any dot net projects (they dont expect to get one in the next 6 months). so they are training me on java now and will put me on a java project soon.
I wish to know if it would be good for me to stay on here and work on java. that would be a drastic tech change for me.
i am looking at the future aspect. ia m pretty comfortable with c# , but cant say i will be comfy with java.
another concern is that it wont be financially rewarding to my career , as i would be considered as fresher in java field and it wont add to my dot net exp as well. ( in case in need to shift after next 6 months time)
any suggestions are welcome
thanks in advance

I usually get a couple books for each exam. And study those and use whatever technology the exam is about for a while. In the US, the exam is $125, but I am not sure how much and where to go in India for them. There are also some practice exams that you can get that take you through the types of questions on the exams. Transcender.com/[^] has some small free exams that you can use to test with. They hope that the small free version will help you to want to buy their full version. Overall they have been ok to use too.

I am developing a problem which rquires me to read in variable sized 1D/2D matrices from the user.
I can't think of a nice GUI which will make this task easy for the user. All I can come up with is :
1. Ask the user to enter the elements one by one
2. OR, display a textbox where they can type in the matrix (like in MATLAB)
Is there any better way to let the user enter the matrix ?
I am thinking of something like a dialogbox which will have a textbox for every cell of the matrix.
Note that the metrices maybe variable sized and there's no fixed upper limit to the order of the matrices.

Maybe some kind of data grid like an Excel spreadsheet where the size of the grid is the dimension of the matrix.

Maybe I've been contracting too long and haven't dipped my toes into the water lately. i'm very happy where I'm at, pay and people are very good. But, take a look at this contract offering. This firm wants to pay, are you ready? $35/hour for this skill set. Now, Ada is very specific and represents a niche market, but still, the broad systems and software engineering they are asking for - 35/hour seems very, very low. Note: it isn't like this job could be offshored - it's for a US Defense contractor...
Opinions?

I live in the UK, so cannot comment on the mental processes of US equivalents, but until recently, recruiters didn't tend to score too highly on the 'thinking' front.
Heck, most of them seem to have trouble reading. I contract (as a limited company, which has two employees, and I'm married to the other one - not a tax dodge, we both go out and bring in business and more importantly, the money for it), and my CV (or resume) clearly states this. I've lost count of the number of times a recruiter has asked me what it would take to get me away from working for that company and be interested in a job with some other company...
Like the phrase 'I am interested in contract vacancies ONLY. A permanent opportunity would have to be extremely special (not just well paid) for me to consider it' doesn't make things any clearer...
That said, the company that placed me on my present contract seems to be able to cut it - they matched my skills to their client, and I'm midway through a second extension to the original contract.
