  1. Re:Why not both? on Is Visual Basic a Good Beginner's Language? · · Score: 1

    If you want to, then go ahead. However, if you're working in the .net environment the last thing you probably want to do is C++ - last I looked, the Microsoft additions to C++ for .net were disgusting.

    I believe the "using" the poster was talking about was the C# keyword that provides automatic .Dispose() execution once the block is out of scope. It's a shortcut for wrapping the code in a try-finally and calling Dispose() in the finally.

    For example if SomeClass implemented IDisposable:

    using (SomeClass x = new SomeClass())
    { // work
    }

    would be equivalent to

    SomeClass x = new SomeClass();
    try
    { // work
    }
    finally
    {
          x.Dispose();
    }
