What OTHER language(s) do you currently program in?

[wyrd]

Im curious for those who are in the professional field (or not, I suppose).. what language(s) do you program in other then .NET?

 

[Volte]

I still tinker with VB6 once in awhile. I use VBScript/ASP for any professional webdesign that I may do.

Other than that, C++ (unprofessionally).

In addition to VB.NET I do C++, and have been playing with NetBeans and JavaSDK.

Thats interesting.. your company hasnt migrated to ASP.NET? Or do they simply have no need to?

Well, I dont work for a company (Im only 15 yet, still have school to worry about), but any consulting work I do for my dad (or in any case even) I do in ASP.

Consulting.. at 15? Amazing.

Most of my programmings done in C#, for CS projects we use Java, and when I get done with the interpreter and IL generator Ill be using yet another custom language...

Ive currently written one compiler and am working on another, why I dont know, but thats okay. The first was very similar to C# but with some interesting changes (such as no ;s or {}s) and of course some quirks as well. My current project is a functional language similar to lisp, but purely OO as well. If that works out well I may end up programming in that.

Heh, I have been kindly informed that I contradicted myself a little bit earlier.

First I said "VBScript for professional work" and then I said I dont work for a company, still have school to worry about, etc, kinda confusing I suppose... What I meant was, I dont have any kind of full time job or "desk job". I simply do projects with my dad (the "real" consultant) in my free time.

VB.NET (professional)
Java (J2EE) before that. (professional)
C++ before that. (professional)
VB4,5,6 before that. (professional)
FORTRAN before that. (professional)
Pascal before that. (professional)
Modula-2 before that. (projects @university)
Assembler once (@university, @home)
Basic before that (@home).

Now VB.Net
Before VB, VBA, C++, C, Assembler

 

[a_jam_sandwich]

VB.Net, VB6, Delphi, PHP

Vb5 and Sybase System XI - Im not proud of it but I gotta pay the bills somehow.

I have a couple of questions for all those who still program in C++ professionaly (ie; you actually get paid for it)...

When building window apps, do you use MFC or ol fasion win32? Or is that part left to a RAD language (.NET, VB6, Java, whatever) and you basically just use C/C++ for low level stuff?

 

[Heiko]

Oh well, C++ was 2 years ago, shortly before the wake of .NET.


We explicitly decided to *disallow* MFC. C++ was just for the core and complex objects (dlls), frontend was VB.
