Language equivalents reference

Just ran across the following:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en...quivalents.asp

Pretty decent comparison of common language (VB, Java, C++, C#, JScript, VFP)
keywords, operators, types, etc. Anyone that is coming from a different
language should find it an invaluable resource.

Handy.

Pity there's no Delphi there though!

Very useful, thanks - I'll work out some way of putting it in the FAQ.

I have a book which builds on this by not only showing how to convert your
code between the different languages, but also shows you to avoid the traps
you could fall into. A lot of the syntax for VB.NET and C# can be converted
using the tables, but a lot of code requires learning different programming
concepts (e.g. triggering and responding to events). My book covers
everything you need to know for converting code between VB6, VB.NET and C#.

Take care,
