Combining C sharp and VB projects

Question

Hi guys,

I want to know if it is normal to combine C-sharp project with a VB project, will not there have some problems ?

Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

Hi,

if you have a mixed team (some C# and some VB developers) it's normal to write some projects in VB and others in C#. Because of .NET this isn't a problem. What you can't do is to mix these languages in one single project.

Answer 2

To insure maximum compatibility, I would create the Main exe using VB. Then any class libraries (dll) in C# should work fine when referenced from the main process. Each referenced class library must be in a separate project, but they can be in the same solution.

Because of some legacy support for VB.NET there might be some language features that are incompatible with C#.
