C# at last - or is it at least ?

Finally I get down to writing some code using c#...

Syntax similar – guessing the ‘equivalent’ names for Java constructs
(without book/reference) hard.

IDE ? SharpDevelop which is rather good – but playing with custom
assemblies it damn too easy to mess up your installation of
IDE / .NET and make a mess. Too fragile.

In the java world unless you start deleting files /
sub-dirs in the JDK root you can’t really mess things up.
Evidently this tight coupling with the system is the
underlying reason for this fragility.

I started working on a small utility in C#
(no more details without a Non Disclosure Aggrement).
Desktop based – will migrate to become a web based.

The idea is it will become a showcase for all constructs
on the language from Threading to Networking,
XML,and in its web form ajax and the rest.
