Just curious ... Have you actually used any late binding or dynamic dispatch at all in the last decade prior to C# 4 ???
Prior to C# 4, you had to use on of the scripting languages or VB.NET. The dynamic language runtime helped static languages to some extent, but lacked that integrated approach. With .NET 4, some of the DLR got integrated into the framework (eg System.Core.Dynamic) and both VB and C# support DynamicObject as well as the traditional late binding. And yes, it is as it has been for the last decade, just declare the variable As Object and turn Strict Off Oh, and yes VB has optional parameters too ;) |-----Original Message----- |From: [email protected] [mailto:ozdotnet- |[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ian Thomas |Sent: Tuesday, 4 October 2011 1:27 PM |To: 'ozDotNet' |Subject: RE: Dynamic | |> VB has had a "sort-of" dynamic (via Options), but can this be done in VB.NET |for Framework 3.5 or 4.0 ?
