They are, just read the documentation!
Both implement IComparable and IComparable<T>.
They implement some other interfaces too, like IEquatable and IConvertible.

I did not mean this Kind of comparable (IComparable etc)  I meant compare the two Scenarios

Actually, that's where the problems begin. Lower and upper-case primitives in Java do completely different things.

I write process control applications, so I have to deal with lots of values that are defined as a particular number of bits in a network interface or a hardware register. For that reason I use Int32, UInt16, and so on. While I realize the chances of the aliases changing underlying type in .NET are effectively zero, I have too many battle scars from prior apps written in C. A variable declared as an int could be 16 bits, 32 bits, 64 bits, or something else.
That said, string's are another story entirely. Character sets, code pages, encoding, decoding, you still end up doing conversions of one sort or another regardless of your 'native' representation. I don't think I've ever declared a String in almost 10 years of C#. I always use the string alias.

I think I will be explicit if the (Win) API is requiring an Int32, and non-specific in the code where I need an int.
One can change, the other will not.

Given all the confusion, I think I'll just override String and string, in future, with an array (which is all a string is meant to be, anyway).

What I find amusing is that VS2015 says that String.Empty can be simplified to string.Empty
Riiight.

Indeed a kind amusing. But if you claim this to MS the Chance is there that a over all "empty I can be everything" will be defined ... and after they will make c# a Java language. No, please not

For what it's worth, the C# style guidelines on MSDN say to use the lower case.

It's good for starting religious style arguments over code style.

True. I didn't intend to but it seems I have. I just wanted to have a gentle Friday afternoon chat about code style... I should have known better!

There are lots of tools available to build what I call a pop-up website on the myriads of $5 web hosts. Usually featuring Wordpress.
But they all appear to be aimed at making a Blog.
Is there anything like that I can point someone at for making something more general purpose? Like a customer feedback page, for example? I think this person could build the whole thing, with an SQL server backend even, with a host available. But isn't in a position to set-up a server and hosting and all that entails themselves. He has a "real" business to run.

Google for "webshop template".

Which are templates, for Wordpress?
|
|
|

Not just Wordpress.
Why does customer feedback go into a database? Wouldn't a form that mails you the result be enough?

I haven't used it personally, but I have recommended Wix[^] to someone non-techy. This person found it easy enough to make something with it.

I was just coming to make the same recommendation (with the same evidence). Are you me?
