C# 2.0 Spec Released

Posted by michael on from the most-anticipated-new-language-of-the-week dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Microsoft released the design specifications document for C# 2.0 (codenamed 'Whidbey') to be released early next year. New features of the language include generics similar to those found in Eiffel and Ada, anonymous methods similar to lambda functions in Lisp, iterators, and partial types."

    For those who can't get that link because it is a .doc document (what a shame on /. front page), you can still use OpenOffice.org to read it.

    C# still sucks...

    Goodness no. I always hated that about Java. It's a nightmare on big projects, and doesn't really serve to clarify code. Eventually, a lot of functions just end up with "throws Exception".. Either that or you start just throwing subclasses of RuntimeException. Blech.
