What You Definitely Don't Want To See

  • Article

It seems that others have been asking the question, “What features do you want to see in C#?”  Of course, with this type of open ended question people will be asking for the moon.  So I thought that since this is the anti-blog you all should get a chance to tell us what you definitely don't want to see in the product.

For Example:

“I don't want to see any more stinking curly braces. There all over the place as it is.“

“I don't want to see this class:  Drug<T>.  I get it all the time from my HMO.“

    Curious.. Are arrays using hashtables?

    I don't want to see another C# file that contains multiple class definitions. Allowing this was the single biggest design mistake in the whole language.

    Stephen, arrays are using a btree with a polynomial seek algorithm, but the super optimizing JIT'er just turns this back into a fetch offset.

    Simon, then you won't like our new 'let' and 'dim' statements coming out in the next version.

    Kevin, I guess you just like being 'out' classed.

    I think I'd have to use Java if that ever really happened.

    Anything resembling one of these - & - or one of them - *. My fingers are shaking just typing those monstrosities.
