- PH95VuimJjqBqy 3y agoI honestly miss VB, there was just something about it.
- CWuestefeld 3y agoYup. Even for non-UI applications. Our site at the time was Active Server Pages, with a DCOM backend. We started out writing the DCOM components in C++, but way more than half of the C++ code was in just type conversions with the variant types that COM demanded. We got tired of that really fast, and started building the COM components with VB5/6. That was SO MUCH faster.
- rqtwteye 3y agoSame here. When VB4 came out I wrote a COM based plugin system with it which worked perfectly.
