A new consulting company with the focus on providing support to software architects and developers was formed. Every member of the team has a long experience in design and development of .NET solutions and together we are able to offer the best support you can get. I'm proud of being a member of this team.

Memi Lavi writes about inherits vs. implements in C#, and that the difference gets much more obvious with VB. He also talks about multiple inheritance with interfaces is not possible.
Mostly I'm writing my programs with C# (sometimes C++ and VB). Now I've done some VB code to see the difference.
Multiple inheritance is possible with interfaces, and VB also uses the Inherits keyword here:
Public Interface IA
Sub A()
End Interface
Public Interface IB
Sub B()
End Interface
Public Interface IC
Inherits IA, IB
Sub C()
End Interface
Multiple inheritance with interfaces.
With C# it is possible that a class derives from an interface but gets the interface implementation from an abstract base class. The C# code is here:
public interface IA
{
void A();
}
public abstract class XA
{
public void A() { }
}
public class X : XA, IA // get the implementation of IA from XA
{
}
Such a scenario seems not possible with VB. With the Implements keyword of VB, always an implementation is needed.
Of course the code can be changed, so that the abstract class implements the interface.

Today I've received the new CodeZone magazine. Articles about WinFS, XAML, Tech-Ed 2004 Europe, UGIdotNET...
Andrea Saltarello (he is a big help with INETA Europe) has written an article about the Italian .NET User Group, UGIdotNET. This group started in 2001 and now has 7000 members. Last year with a full-day meeting a cinema was used for the technical presentations, and after the presentations the film Matrix 3 - Revolutions was shown. This was the Revolutions Workshop.
More about the group and other articles in the CodeZone magazine. I'm sure you can get it with the next meeting at your local .NET User Group (in Europe).
