    I like the Java language; it is the best example of Extensable and reusable coding...........the problem i see is its need for a special server to run jsp/servlets........ApacheTomcat is cool...and i know their are the bug gun servers. But they don't help to promote wide spread use the language in everyday business; they seen more foocused on the enterprise market. And if you want to loose a battle in the tech world .... just go ahead and leave the little man out...... Microcrap realized that .... and is making changes ....(small business server)

    What I believe "Microcrap" is good at is the marketing. They lul consumer into taking on projects they cannot handle by creating a false sense of security.

    What u all talk M$ for... a charity
    The aim of all business is domination....
    If it is not...
    Then its a charity or humanitarian organization of some sort....

    Hello... word is.. business

    Anyway...
    I'm a java person
    Just dont see why the M$ bashing is necessary to make a point about the language

    Good may still rise from evil....
    Is that y ppl go to church...
    To be good even though shaped in sin

    Anyway

    There are quite a few places out here that use java
    Most of them financial giants or working with money and many daily transactions

    We all know java is a pain with number of lines necessary
    (Why so many wrappers/methods in methods to open and read one stupid text file?)

    To get the same GUI in foxpro or powerbuilder takes me much less time

    But we also know I can do all sorts of things in java that would be a pain in foxpro...

    But seriously.... how many times does a database programmer need such features

    Cross-platform is an advantage but how big for the average programmer

    How many hybrid environments will most ppl in Ja work in

    reason I use it.... cost

    But if I could afford PowerBuilder 10.0 Enterprise....

    Some good points there Lano. That reminds me, I need to visit Powerbuilder to see what they are up to with version 10.0.

    What do you base this on? Where are your references?
    Further, would you expand on "integrates well"?

    Same as before: What do you base this on? Where are your references?

    Let me weigh in on this.

    Intellisense is not a .Net feature.... it is a feature of the IDE used to code .NET. Foxpro 7 and 8 have intellisense, they are not .Net. Java IDEs Netbeans and Sun1 (Forte) have intellisense. What does that have to do with a language, its an IDE feature. Even php and perl editor have intellisense, and if u can get it in perl, with 6 million ways to get the job done.... it cant be a .Net feaure.

    U can use any COM and DCOM component on a machine from java and it has its own APIs. That is the equivalent.

    I use the MS Speech SDK in my Java programs. Same number of lines to get the same thing done in fox and VBasic. Using the IDE u can see all methods exposed.

    Threads..... Java was multi-threaded long before 1/3 of all the languages in the visual Studio.

    And the foot print thing isnt as big a deal as it is played out. Put a single form .Net app on a minimal system.... make sure .net runtime has to be initialised at run time and u will see it has a start up lag just like java. First time I did a dead start I thought the program wasnt running. If the .Net environment has already been initialize... the program will start in a blink.

    But the OS optimizations are there. It does lock into the system more naturally.


    The BIGGY.... and this is HUGE...................
    U CAN OPEN A .NET EXECUTABLE IN NOTEPAD AND SEE ALL THE CODE!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yes.... I like that.

    It's fascinating how you write with such conviction. I wonder how that is possible. Let me ask you this: Are you interested in any other references other than your own?
