I'm taking a class next year on J# and I just d/led it. Its almost exactly like C#. Just wondering how many people use it to see if its a popular programming language or not?

I don't think so. Its just a java feel syntax. And I like C# much more... The entire get and set crap is just annoying to me. I used to do some Java(Eclipse) but once I got into C# it was much better.

I don't think its as popular. I'd say its mostly C++, C# and in some cases VB.NET *shudder*.

Used for Java .NET switchover people

I don't like Java, like Tural said, that get and set crap annoys me as well. Especially if your IDE like the one we use in school doesn't have any IntelliSense...

Anyway, I think I've only used J# once before for programming on a mobile.. It's been dropped in VS08, that has to be an indicator of something..

Yea Obviously. I have never used J#, Probably never Will Unless I need to.

I took a class over the summer to learn J#.NET. Some people say to just learn C#, but it honestly depends on what you are looking for.

• J# is currenty under development. It is one of the newer Visual Studios compilers, and they are still working on making it better.

• J# is used the best for internet-based projects, just as Java is. For example, creating a web browser with J# or getting your programs on the internet is made as easy as possible, while still preserving programming elements and freedom.

• J# does lack some of the power C# has when just using Windows. For example, J# currently has no 3D Graphics support, whereas C# can use Open-GL and CGI and such.

Hope this helps

Uhh, wtf, J# is .NET, it can use MDX. And AFAIK, there hasn't been an "offical" .NET wrapper made for .NET.
