Java > .NET?

<< < (2/3) > >>

Pathos:
Java API is really easy to use and the language does encourage good habits, my experience with VB .net was one of the most horrific experiences ever. But some of my mates reckon C# is a nicer language than java (which has some really stupid bits, no overloaded operators, each release they add a little more C++ but don't go the whole way, idiots).

Personally I'd use java over .net for its portability and very nice API but byte coded software can go fuck itself for all I care, so bloody slow.

cymon:
Tru dat. The entire purpose of byte coded software could be irrelevant if all of the operating systems were POSIX compliant , which would help the development of cross platform programs, and if an open source development model was the norm, than binary incompatability wouldn't be an issue.

It's supported through them, via the Compact Frameworks for CE 5.0 or Windows XP Mobile/Embedded, I believe. If your comment was about the popularity of such devices, I haven't seen any either.

cymon:
Last time I checked, most cells don't run Microsoft Windows. But any recent cellphone can run simple Java apps.
