C# Browser Control?

  • Thread starter Thread starter Robert Kent
  • Start date Start date
There doesn't need to be a C# version. These controls are mainly for
converting Java applets to J#. If you want to convert a Java applet to C#,
run the Java Conversion Wizard included with VS.NET 2003.

Does J# have an advantage over the other .net languages when it comes to
creating applets, or whatever the .net equivalent is called?
 
I wouldn't say it has an advantage, per se. I would say that if you are
migrating over from Java, then J# is the easiest transition, next to C#.
There are things that J# does differently from the other .NET languages,
just as there are things that C# does differently from VB.NET. All in all,
any code that is written for the .NET framework gets compiled down to IL.
That goes for all 4 of the different languages.

Are you looking to port over some existing applets?

Nope. I'm looking to write new applets (or whatever they are called now). I
started with C# two years ago and haven't done anythign with J# or Java.

I'm still using vs.net 2002, haven't upgraded to 2003. I'm hoping I can hold
off until 2005 is released.

Is it easier to create an applet in J# than it is in C#? It looks like the
browser control only works with J#. Is that true?

One more question. Does anyone know if Mono will support applets? If so, can
they be used in browsers other than IE and on the Mac and Linux operating
systems?
 
Hello,

I am not quite sure what you mean by 'applets'. If you are coming over from
java, you will find there is no direct equivallt of a java applet in .NET.
Your best bet is a web form. Anything you can do in a java applet, you can
do using web forms or web services, and they can run in any of the CLS
languages. If you like C#, you can use it. If you would prefer a more
java-like syntax, use J#.

Also, in response to your second question, as far as I am aware .NET web
applications run on any thin client, not just IE. Why wait for Mono when you
already have it.

The above may or may not be strictly true, I don't pretend to be the worlds
expert, having only a few months experience with .NET 2003 (I was still
using VC++ and VB version 6 until may)

J# supports "Browser Controls". Aren't they the same thing as applets?

If Mono supports these, then it means that they could possible be run under
Mac OSX and Linux, not just Win32 and IE.
