C#

Reference types are nullable by default; in-language null keyword is untyped. Lack of discriminated unions Exceptions as default, non-exceptional error handling method - there's not much of an alternative. archaic switch statement syntax and limitations Needless distinction between constructors + static methods Static methods can't be part of an interface Lack of by-shape interface implementation rather than explicit interface implementation - leading to numerous language design hacks such as the linq query syntax, foreach, collection & object initializers -- none of which can be flexibly reused. For example, the object initializer syntax may be nice, but plays poorly with immutable objects. Cannot inherit "interface" of a class independently of implementation - leading to code duplications and overarchitected code that provides interfaces, abstract base classes, a few common implementations, and no way to pick and choose the bits of each to use. Also; leads to too many code that's tightly coupled to a particular implementation since it's common to explicitly refer to the implementation type rather than an interface. Cannot multiply inherit via composition since a classes "interface" is tightly coupled to it's implementation; effectively lack of mixins. The above limitations of interfaces lead to a proliferation of virtually identical interfaces that don't overlap naturally in any kind of type hierarchy. IComparable vs. IEquatable vs. IComparable<T> vs object.Equals vs. operator == etc. etc. By extension, making a custom type that satisfies all these things is a lot more work than necessary (in particular for collection classes). Obviously, the language designers realize this, hence the various workarounds for things like linq, foreach and collection initializers which work by-shape rather than by-interface. Redundant use of parentheses and braces rather than layout-is-structure. Return values can be ignored, limiting the effectiveness of type inference. Enums aren't a normal type and can't have methods. Also, enum values aren't typesafe and may be initialized to 0 despite not having a 0 value. Mixing metaphors by lumping flag and non-flag enums together. Lack of proper value type support. Value types can't be inherited, have different constructor semantics, and perform poorly due to CLR limitations. Also, confusing semantics regarding value types: some values are really values (and can't be modified), and others are really non-aliased, non-null references (variables). This gets particularly confusing with regards to the next issue: Semantic distinction between fields and properties, particularly in conjunction with lack of mutability modifier (ala C++'s const) Can't specialize generics Cannot provide default generic type parameters (e.g. factory generics) lack of typedef makes generics a pain to use (using is a limited but good-to-know substitute!) Can't genericize over things other than types (e.g. functions, plain values, or names). This means you can't do something like make a generic implementation of a dependancy property leading to, well, nasty implementations of things like dependancy properties and the overuse of code-snippets and poorly readable code as a result. Limited capability to specify generic type requirements e.g. generic sum method that takes both int, double and a bigint (without tricky and often slow hacks). An interface method implementation or virtual method override cannot return a more specific type or accept a more general type; i.e. limited co/contravariance support even in C# 4.

VBA(因为你认为你的语言不好)

Whitespace inside a line is rigidly enforced. Statements just end, and require a " _" to break to the next line, but not every line can be broken. No ++,--,+=,-= statements. Seriously? Arrays can begin at any index, not just 0. Some types (i.e.: fixed-point "Decimal" value) must be subtypes of Variant, and aren't available as their own type. != and <>. "=" is used as both comparator and assigning, instead of splitting into "=" and "==". "Option Explicit". UI hasn't been updated since 2000. Office2k7 didn't upgrade to VB.NET Most object models are non-sensical and overly verbose.

HyperTalk:

很久很久以前就死了 没有简单的赋值(你不能说a:= 3，你必须说把3放进a 没有嵌套函数 没有真正的数据结构，只有字符串。要创建“列表”，您可以使用itemDelimiter分隔项并手动转义它们。你也可以得到行和单词比如txt的第5行第2个单词

说句题外话，我认为HyperTalk最酷的独特功能之一是特殊的it变量:

ask "How many years old are you?"
answer "You are " & it*12 & " months old."

关于c#:

I hate that there is no keyword to specify which exceptions are thrown from a method like in java. Its a much better way to document exceptions than using an XML comment. I would also want a much better syntax for generic constraints like oring and anding of constraints. Why a method can't return more than one value? Lack of support for aspect oriented programming in the language. Why can't you annotate each one of the property accessors with an attribute? Lack of builtin regexp support like in perl.

C#

我对c#非常满意，但这两个真的让我很恼火:

Constructor-based initialization for immutable classes is less convenient, less intuitive (when you read the code you don't understand what you assign to what), has less IDE backing than inline object initialization. This makes you lean towards mutable classes inevitably. I know this has been mentioned before, but I strictly have problems with initialization syntax for immutable classes. switch is too verbose. Whenever I see a situation where a switch would be proper, I'm really inclined to use an if..else if.. just because it's more terse (~30% less typing). I think there should be no fallthrough for switch, break should be implied, and case should allow comma separated list of values.

到目前为止，我最讨厌我最喜欢的语言的地方是我的选择总是在变。每次我以为我找到了命中注定的那个人，我就会发现我讨厌他的5个(或更多)地方。然后那边的草看起来更绿……
