Meh. VB isnt THAT bad for simple programs like this. And if I knew C++ I would make it in that. I just dont know it. And really cant be bothered learning it. But feel free to make a new SMD creating thing, as this one kinda sucks a bit.

Hey said C# (Cee-sharp) not C++... He has every so teeny-weeny a leg to stand on dissing VB ;)

The fact is that we are going for functionality not performance, obviously.

None at all really. I work in C#. It's the same damn language as VB.NET, just using a less-verbose syntax. C# 1.1 is full of pointless anachronisms plainly inserted just for the familiarity of old C/Java programmers the same way VB.NET has pointless anachronisms for Basic programmers.

For shit's sake, you still use the Break statement in switch boxes, only now there is no fallthrough. Just make the cases blocks and be done with it.

Why fix what isn't broken? I'm a non-fan of VB as much as the next guy, but it works. Besides, if you develop this into SharpMap, then you have to maintain it, and Maelstorm will be useless... at least this way you cna focus on other things and Maelstorm can contribute :)

Keep in mind, though, that VB.NET is diferent than VB.

Nice program but theres "bug" with the the decimals.

The program accepts and saves stuff in this format.

Code: Select all

WaterSurfaceColor=0,49 0,5 0,46;
But the Spring only accepts only when using dot with decimals...

Code: Select all

WaterSurfaceColor=0.49 0.5 0.46;
If theres someone working on this, i hope they take this small bug into consideration, thanks. :)

Theres is a bug when creating a smd. The creator puts values with comma "," when it should put it with point "." example.:

SunColor=1 0,98 0,87;
now these values doesnt work and it leaves the result totally dark.
Instead
It should be
SunColor=1 0.98 0.87;

Edit: seems to be already noticed...

VB?!?!

Someone needs to C# that project. :) I was actually hoping to include an SMD module into my SharpMap program so map generation can be done via one program.

You're not seriously going to start a VB.Net / C# flamewar here are you? Or anywhere? They're the same damned language, but with different syntax.
