What do you code in?

I develop in-house stuff for the Telecoms Company I work for. Mostly ASP .Net frontends (coding in VB) and MS SQL backends. I try to code the business rules within TSQL so I'm only relying on the web service to do the donkey work. I do a fair bit of ActiveX Scripting for SQL jobs too as it's very flexible in what can be done with it.

I code in my underpants :P

You mean that isn't the best way to program :pac:

LabVIEW 2009 and try to use C++ when I get the chance

cornbb

Am I the only Objective-C programmer here?

Also some C++ and a handful of C. And some scripting in Python/Bash.

Just started playing with Python myself.

I've written a few ObjC/Cocoa apps and ported some old 3D demos to OSX but I've never come across anyone who programs ObjC apps professionally apart from yourself on this forum.

Horses for courses.

C for system-level stuff and servers on unix; PHP for web stuff; Python for quick stuff (though I'm doing a larger project in it on the side for learning and fun); C++ where the job requires it. And some assembly for coursework.

There are a growing number of us now thankfully thanks to the iPhone's popularity. I've spotted a few on the Mac forum and elsewhere on boards.

Coding in LISP. I guess that makes me strange!

Hoping to move on to a OOP like C# or Java soon.

With what I'm working on currently, it's VB.NET for the front end and Tsql for the back end.

Worked with a bit of datatrieve and cobol before. Found them both horrendous to work with. But that was probably down to a lack of training

Jaysus...welcome to the 21st century! Datatrieve sure brings me back.

That was only last year! Worked with it for a year. Absolutely hated it. Slow, clunky crap. Still in use in some government departments. They can't get rid of it quick enough imo

Actionscript, am I the only one?

Foxpro, badly. I'll get my coat.

All Business Intelligence related (not exactly programming). building SQL Server cubes, data integration, MDX. Been @ SQL Server for 12 years.

Used to do Powerbuilder in the olden days. Good to see a few previous posters still at it.

I've spent the last few weeks reverse engineering some functionality from a 20 year old C/Ingres unix based system (with Y2K and EMU updates) to a monolithic Delphi/Oracle system. I want to kill myself

Java & PHP, although I do have experience with C++, and to a more limited extent C.

Powerbuilder used to have quite a base in the financial sector because of Sybase.

It's amazing to see companies still shell out zillions for third-party OLAP functionality when MS SSAS in SQL Server does it all as part of the standard licence. They've managed to integrate it nicely into VS, but some of the 'seams' are still there, it originally was a product they bought it from an Israeli company.
