SpoofSupreme Posted September 27, 2012 Author Share Posted September 27, 2012 hello all,I'm new to eclipse and a computer science student in central VA. I've heard of Eclipse, but I also heard it uses Visual basic. I'm use to using C++, and was wondering if it would be possible for me to use. If not, how similar is Vb6 to C++?

Marsh Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 You have to Visual Studio 6\. Its similar in the sense that any programming language has the same ideas and methods. Its just learning a different syntax. If your coming from c++ you will find vb6 to be a dumbed down version of that. It requires a lot less syntax like brackets etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't know if the licence ends when I'm not a student any more or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
