Hello,
which language in your opinioin is best to develop ASP components in?
Visual Basic or Visual C++?
Is there a good book covering both languages?
Greetings

VB is a fast and easy language to learn and it's very fast to write
components. C++ is more difficult to learn.
It's up to you what language you want to use.
But have in mind that there is a small difference in perfomance between C++
and VB components. If you want to do something that has to run fast, use
C++.
Have in mind, if you are going to get data from a database don't use ADO
because it's aparetment threaded and is much faster in VB than in C++.
I recommand you to read "Beginning Components for ASP" ISBN: 1861002882

jeahhh... so I thonk it's good to be able to develop components in both
languages.

mmhhhh, and how to access databases from C++ best? Native?

Ok, the WROX book. What do you know about
"Instant ASP Components with CDROM" by McGraw-Hill (I didn't find a website)
"Developing ASP Components" by O'Reilly
http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/devaspcom/
Thanks so far.
Regards
Bard

Why? Essentially VB6 is for people who don't know how to code in C++. If
you knew how to code in C++ anyway, why would you ever use VB6?
As far as I can see, this whole question will be thrown wide open by the
arrival of VB7, which supports proper multithreading, has namespaces, is
capable of proper OOP, etc. Of course, high-end use of VB7 in this way to
make use of its full potential will not be an easy, accessible or
quickly-learnt skill. Not in the same way as pasting a few command buttons
onto a form and writing some _click event code is, anyway.
There's also the C# wildcard looming in the future, muddying the picture,
somewhat. C# is being marketed as a tailor-made language for COM.
