#VISUAL BASIC 6 PORTABLE FOR WINDOWS 7 WINDOWS 10#
As Windows 10 becomes a continual work in process, it seems that the stream of complaints will only be stemmed through attrition in the ranks." "The current state of affairs paints a bleak picture for the part of the IT world represented in this thread. Later on, srfreeman writes and concludes : I find the term wholly appropriate to the situation at MS. a while back NASA was served a lesson too, comittees concluded a CHANGE OF CULTURE was the biggest element to bring about solutions for their problems.

Oblivion is menacing a company that does not fullfill the real needs and desires of it's user base, much less acknowlodging them. Truth is VS has become a much too big animal, and admit it MS, you barely have the resources and qualified staff to continue mantaining and growing this thing much longer and keep up tying up the loose ends. My bet is that it would outsell in a flash any of the VS products.Īctually, I don't only see it as an alternative, but rather as a Golden Opportunity to get back to bases, and re-engineer the product almost from scratch, keeping of course its governing principles and easy syntax while aiming at the same time at platform portability. NET, why not a parallel product? I am just saying here, out of my head. OK, so MS fanboys can revel in their C++, C# or. Better watch out if someday, Google or Java decides to venture into the OS business. With it's constant change of directions, MS, the very company that writes the OS is trailing the pack as far as writing portable applications is concerned. Wake up MS, this is what we expect from you : write a compiler where YOU take care of the nitty-gritty, and leave us, common mortals, more time to achieve productivity and write products instead of being swamped by the complexities of the programming system. VB6 can do that with the less amount of effort in Windows history. In my view, there is no reason WHATSOEVER for which you could not write the "Hello World" app for any platform anymore complicated than a simple: print "Hello World" Borderline ridiculous : lots of very advanced computer topics you have master before even doing the simplest thing. Look at simplest way to write a Metro APP.

You want the Windows programming experience? Be ready to feel the pain. but for one techie that wants to wet his dreams with OOP and polymorphism, there are hundreds who simply need to fire an IDE and write a custom spreasheet for their office, or a bill calculation, or. I don't doubt that some programmers at system level want and need something real powerful (OOP and it's paradigms) etc. But then the world crumbled and what was to follow only succeeded in putting programming out of reach of the masses. And that path was followed for a while (VB6). It was once Bill Gates's own vision that one day, Windows apps would be as easy to write as a basic program was back then.

K9A2VM MSi MoBo (MS-7501) Phenom II x4 940 3.I have some old C++/C source code to reuse recently and I have to install Visual Sutdio 6 on my Window 7 (64-bit). I've found some games that where made after 2003 or so that had video problems and other things, and I've actually used Windows 98 mode to fix them and been pleasantly surprised.Windows' OS's store and use files in some strange ways and sometimes the simplest and dumbest things can fix things that many people like to overthink. Just make a restore point before you install something you're unsure of, then if a problem happens, you can just restore and do it again a different way. The beginning is always the most important step in making things work correctly. Different OS's install things in different ways and to different paths. Often times I've found that people don't try using compatibility mode on setup files or install files, they normally install and then proceed to try compatibility mode after the install is already done incorrectly.
