What dose C# offer over C++?

[Eber Kain]

Well, What can you do with C# that you cant do with C++?

RAD with UNICODE support, a great class library, memory management, true OOP if you like it...

does c# support monitors? i.e. something similar to the java keyword "synchronized"?

[nvoigt]

Well, I'm pretty sure C# supports Mutexes and Critical Sections and all the stuff that we had in C++... I don't know if they put it into a keyword for simplicity though...

Yeah that's what I meant, a keyword (actually built inside the language, without having to introduce some of your own assembly code). NV, I think I'm gonna take the next few days off and check out all your C# links (thanks for getting that together by the way).

RAD as borland explained it is "Rapid Application Development" And thats more of a software design, and not really anything from the launguage.

Whats UNICODE?
