C++, C, C#. Some combination?

It is VB if I am not mistaken.

Really? I find that hard to believe.

When DW came out, I had a critical error once. I think I saw a bit of VB stuff in the call stack.
Either way, it doesn't really matter - .NET is .NET. So if you use VB or C# or whatever doesn't really make a difference. It all results in CIL/CLR anyway.

I wish I spoke Greek... and Mandarin.

This is one of my hobbies. A great reason to visit at Greece every year...

Cool. That seems fun. I want to visit there too.
 
Also, in parts of the USA a person might use the term "Greek" to refer to some topic of conversation that is totally unknown to the listener.

Thanks. When I'm more energized I'll browse through it and make sense of it and hope that I can have some use for it or that it will broaden my paths of thinking.

If I am not mistaken, that doesn't necessarily mean that the entire program is written in VB though... would be interesting to hear from the developer.

Over here in Finland we say in that case that "It is Hebrew for me".

Hi guys,

For those who are curious, DW was developed with C# in Visual Studio 2005. The external dependencies include Media Player and DirectX.

thanks erik, that answers that one then

Real programmers use COBOL!! [:D]

Actually real programmers usually end up fixing the mess some guy before them made. [:D]

Too true [8D]

LOL, and real programmers hate quality assurance testers [;)]

Whilst it's true that the end code all ends up as CIL/CLR, I don't agree at all with your assertion that the source langauge "doesn't really matter".

It doesn't really matter. C# and VB.NET produce the same IL code which in turn is compiled to native processor instructions by the just-in-time compiler when run.
