Hi all,

Apologies if this an over asked question but is there a version of dotnetnuke in C#? I've looked around on the net and this sees to be the best opensource CMS, highly recommended, lots of support by hosting companies etc. But i know DNN is written in VB.NET and my VB suks. Is there a C# version?

Thanks,

Steve

Steve,

At one time someone built a C# version of DNN, I believe it was based on 4.4.0 but I cannot remember.

As far as I know making a C# version is not soemthing on the dashboard of the core team.

I personally prefer C# myself and I simply create all of my modules in C# and I only have to touch core code on a very limited basis so it isn't a big deal.

Steve,

There is a sticky thread titled " Why isn't there a C# version of DotNetNuke?" right at the top of the topic list in this forum.

Chances are that 99.9% of the time you are NOT going to be modifying the core code at all, so it should not matter what .NET language the framework is written in.

Most of your "development" will be in custom modules and in that case, you can write them in whatever CLR compliant language you are proficient in or like.

Welcome to DotNetNuke!

Thanks Ed and Mitchel for both of your responses (and the link to the sticky subject of VB over C#)

I have been hum and hahing over which CMS to use for some time now. If what you say is true then hopefully I won't be called upon to VB my way out of a tight spot and can rely on my C# knowledge (having a Java and C++ background) to build some custom modules and integrating with the CLR.

Looking forward to trying out the modules of DNN and developing some cool sites. Glad to be part of the online DNN community!

Cheers

Steve

Its Friday tomorrow Steve you cant start a C# vs VB thread unless its Friday . 

Build your modules in C# and never touch the core.  As soon as you touch the core you are stuck and cannot upgrade unless you remake your changes.
