2.0 or higher is the way to go. 3.5 if the people have it. 1.1 or lower is like being stuck in Visual Basic 1.0 for DOS.

3.5 seems to leak as much as that mess of 1.1 really did.
The problem is with the word: seems.
It is actually the impact it has, by-design.

Shouldn't the list be in some logical order?
|
|

The order of the list seems to be the ranking of the answers, as they are the same. I think I would prefer that the list pre-vote should not show up in the order of the voting just because knowing ahead of time what is ranked higher may affect someone's vote on some things.
Then again, maybe the order is just coincidentally the same!

... but expect to switch to 8.0 soon

I don't even write code anymore. I just stare at the IDE and it gets written for me.

In Framework 3.5, i find the datatype "var" especially in LINQ samples, does this mean we are going back to the good old (or bad old) days of Visual Basic VB6 and earlier when any and every variable was of type Object.
I have been involved in converting some VB6 apps to .NET and its been a tough job finding out the actual datatype and moreover you cannot use the handy Property Browser facility.

var has its place, but the potential for misuse is very high, even among CodeProjectors.
I say, if you know the type, use the type; var is for when you don't or can't know the type.

var is NOT the same as a Variant from the old VB days. It is a statically inferred type that remains that type through the duration of its scope. It is not like the old VB variant where the compiler had to leave enough "space" for whatever type of variable you put in. This kind of typing has been done for years successfully in functional languages like scheme and ocaml.

Not at all. var is just an unfortunate keyword for type inference[^], which is very different from dynamic typing with variants.

Wasn't there some rumbling about putting this in C++0xx sometime within the next millennium?

Yes, but the keyword is different[^]

It would have been better if they'd come up with a different keyword. I've seen lots of confusion over it - even if it's only short-lived confusion.

That question has been answered so many times that is getting bored.
var != VB6VariantObjectType
|
|
|
|
|
why are you getting so "bored"  , i have not said that
var != VB6VariantObjectType
i just mentioned that var is similar to Object in C# or VB which is way too confusing when it comes to guessing the underlying datatype, something similar to var used in scripting langugage jscript used in in html files.
