well, since all others gave up on this thread, I am the only person here
anyway.
think about that.
perhaps you should listen to the adage that it is a wise man indeed who
knows how the wind shifts, and does something about it.
an agreement? so what? what products came out? what percentage of their
total? etc. My point is: everybody is developing with java in one way or
another, that does mean anything.
The company I work for is a heavy java (serverside) developer, but then, the
company is big in development for any platform you can imagine, so is java
winning (what you are advocating) ? no. It is just another language.
loser....you don't win points for shifting the discussion when you have
no counterarguments.
the original argument was whether any big companies were using
j2me....with your statement above, you pretty much did a complete about
turn and admitted EVERYONE is using java.
now, as to WHY that's important, here's a CLUE...guess what, maybe
living with yo mama means you can do away with earning a living, but in
the REAL world us normal folk have to earn a living, and it sure
gladdens this java programmer's heart to see so many job opportunities
for people who take the time to learn java.
anyone has done that. so?
hmmm. perhaps again it's because the original argument was that NO BIG
COMPANY DEVELOPED USING J2ME.
i guess you're folding on this point as well, eh?
i mean, c'mon now, give me some real competition here....you SCREW up
BIGTIME by somehow thinking it would COST MORE TO HAVE A LONG TERM
RELATIONSHIP WITH A CLIENT BY USING JAVA, then now you ADMIT EVERYONE IS
USING JAVA when the original argument was that NO big company was using
it.
hey man, at least make me sweat here...eh?
so?
windows is C++ based, so?
see above. again, the original argument was that NO BIG COMPANY
DEVELOPED USING J2ME.
