    I am sitting in a Data Structures class right now and it seems like every day the professor manages to bring up some new miracle feature that is new in version 5 or 6 and how its so new and gonna save the day blah blah blah. I'm sitting here wanting to scream out that all of these features existed in the first version of .NET. [Update]We are talking about ackerman's function again... nothing to do with data structures...:sigh: [/Update]

    Never used it, but from what I see of it... I ended up with 4 separate versions of it on my system (1.4.2, 1.4.5, 1.5.0a, 1.5.0c or something) It was the slowest thing I've ever seen (running Limewire - how can it take so long to simply initalise a dialog box! And the window painting was intolerable). The files are all over the place, it has no content management (going back to the 4 versions of it) which reminds me of Python - each program that runs it has its own DLL for it - why not have a global one? :sigh: The long roundabout way you have to go to download the runtimes (website, through about 20 pages then downloading it for six hours). I could probably come up with more if I used it, but I doubt I will.

      It is my current nightmare. Using it alongside a Rails app and JSP completely and utterly sucks.

          Java (the language) is a joke. However, the framework is pretty big and rich, and when used from a good language like Scala[^], it surely looks like good platform for some applications. Also, I like the fact that Sun stubornly sticks to backward compatibility with new versions of Java. MS is way too much relaxed in this matter, IMHO.

                  How can you say the java 'language' pretty much sucks? Java is almost identical to c#. I've been using java for over 6 months now (for web apps). I still do windows apps in c#, however I have found it is a very easy and smooth transition to work between java and c#.

                      What, are you saying VB6 apps don't run anymore?

                        Java and C# are both toy languages that are some software marketing exec's wet dream. We'd be way ahead if they'd just put some effort into giving us decent C++ libraries.

                        The evolution of the human genome is too important to be left to chance idiots like CSS.
