I definitely agree with that. I hate using GUI designers and always hand code stuff. But the Visual Source GUI designer for C# was actually quite pleasant to use.
Not that I have too much experience, only Java Swing and some Qt. It made me think that maybe I should give the Qt designer a second try.

I didn't get on too well with it either. I put that down to the really shit book that I bought which didn't give whole examples without interspersing it with text.
The idea of signals and slots never really gelled with me either.

Meh. Design your shit so it doesn't leak.
Yeah, I admit it can be a pain in the ass in all honesty - but it all has tradeoffs. Last thing I want happening is garbage collection during a timing-critical piece of code. There's no one correct tool. Use the tool that's best for the task.

The best response I can give is that any programmer should have a working familiarity with as many of the more popular languages and environments as possible. It's really not that hard to learn the minor syntax differences between C# and Java, and the rest is mainly just googling the different libraries to see what they can do.

Marsellus Wallace, actually after finishing a whole project with .net ...my vote goes to Java  it's so much better TBH, lighter, open-source, tutorials everywhere, unlike the closed shut .net, where you can literally get stuck for days looking for a simple answer.

oic you are talking about web development using MVC right? I've been stuck a couple of times in ASP, mostly because I wasn't fully comprehending how the page events were ordered, and how names were generated for Viewstate. I'm curious, though, what is specifically great about Java when it comes to things like migrating a database.
