I think you might be misinterpreting that quotation. I read it as saying that problems perceived in the older languages informed CLR and C# in the sense that an understanding of those flaws and shortcomings allowed them to be avoided or ameliorated in the newer design.
I know very little about CLR and C# nor have I ever heard of Anders Hejlsberg, for what it's worth.
I think you're correct in your interpretation. For the record, I've been at this for a while -- I wrote a C textbook more than 20 years ago. However, I've also earned a good living for the last 5 years writing commercial software in C#, and it has become my all-time favorite programming language. It's not something to be scorned simply because Microsoft developed it (unless that's the guiding force in your life, I suppose). -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
