At this point, .NET would be a downgrade. Never mind how I feel about
.NET in general, the primary client of my DLLs is an Access app...I doubt
I'd get anything like the performance I'm getting now by running it
through Interop. It already needs a little re-design work because of speed
(or lack thereof) issues...going through Interop on top of that would be a
nightmare.
I don't think I would recommend dot net for this, although if it's the start
of an upgrade to dot net then it could work ok.
As for the double-clicking, that's one more click than clicking on the
Compile button in Access to be brought to the next problem, or copying the
Run with Full Compile to a button in VB6. (Though admittedly, in .NET,
you're not re-compiling each time you double-click.) I was hoping for
identical functionality in VB6, perhaps through some back-door method, but
it seems it's not to be had. :) Still, since I'm dealing with DLLs for
the most part, the fact that it tries to run isn't usually a major
concern.
The main advantage is that you have a list of errors. Double clicking or
single clicking is minor.
VB.NET...then I actually tried .NET and that idea was immediately
scrapped.
Why?
Besides, as I understand it, getting VB6 to run on Vista presents a few
problems...getting .NET to run on Vista is either impossible or at least
very difficult, depending on the version.
No that I've heard of.
Since my company isn't known for using the latest & greatest (which is
odd, considering it's the main telecommunications company in our region),
The bigger the company the older the products they use it seems.
I'm forced not to port to .NET at this point. I *do* have the future to
think about here, and oddly enough, that dictates that I use the older VB6
until a) .NET matures and b) I have access to a version of it that can
work reliably on all OS's (if I decide to use it at all).
What problems are you talking about with .net and vista? AFAIK, the only
issue is you can code in dotnet 1.1 on vista but apps compiled with it will
of course run.
