I got an email with this link:
http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,3973,1441657,00.asp
Microsoft is working to extend C# by building xml and sql api support directly
into the language.
Quote:
"The architects behind Xen believe that if an API is used frequently, it should
be considered for incorporation into the primary language. The popularity of
XML and relational data structures make them the most likely candidates for
inclusion. "
The problem I see about this is that 3rd party libraries would be broken or at
least made irrelevant. Also learning the language would become a more
formidable processess -at least 3 more inches to the manual
What will be the real consequences of what MS is trying to do ? Or is this a
good thing?
A fuller treatment of it is at this site:
