Viper and VisualBasic

I have an application which would very much benefit from what's
described as "native XML" in Viper. It is written in VB6.
From what I read, I cannot use the "Native XML" features of VIPER

without converting the source code of my app to VB.NET. That cannot be
done because of the cost.

Have I interpreted the information available (from Boulder) correctly?
Is this the end of VisualBasic support for IBM products?

Stan ... you would get a faster response on Viper if you put your
question here:

I've built a control. At the top of my control, I have this: Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic Then, later, I call a function like this: DateTime.Now.Year.ToString() This works fine on my machine.

Is anyone writing VB.Net (2003) code /without/ referencing the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace(?), regardless of whether its Import'ed or not? The Powers That Be here are trying to introduce a "standard" that we should be writing our "VB" programs /without/ using this namespace at all and relying instead solely on CLR functionality. Comments and Opinions please...

Used VB.NET (on my client PC) to convert VB6 executable to .NET executable. Placed the .exe file on a network drive on my server. From client, ran .NET Wizards "Trust an Assembly" to make the .exe (on the network drive, on the server) "Full Trust." From the client, double-click on the ..exe (on the network drive, on the server) and it runs fine. So far, so good, but... On the server, where I've installed not VB.NET but .NET

Having only recently migrated across from VB6 to VB.NET I'm still unsure whether or not I should be making (heavy) use of the Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace in new applications. I've read a lot of posts in the (VB).Net newsgroups and seen just about all of the For and Against arguments i.e. not using it = not coding in VB.NET, not using it = good OO. I'm also aware of the difference between this namespace and the compatibility namespace....

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
