Ok, read your "interesting" conversation. Pretty nice, really. But for a
constructive thought you have to think longer. We all know there are just two
platforms which have "legal" right to claim to be the platform of tomorrow,
Java and .NET. Of course, .NET is a bit better because it had Java to learn
from. That is what I read in most third party .NET documentations. But that's
not the main problem here. .NET is better because of its properties, events,
delegates and so on. Too bad it hasn't added alreadey generics. Mono is doing
a great job porting .NET to other platforms and Microsoft should be thankful.
Because whithout Mono, .NET wouldn't last. I am using Linux and I know what
I'm talkong about.
I think Rob's problem is that Java, nor .NET offers true "productivity
whithout hedache" programming. Java is totaly nowhere whith its MVC patterns,
which only make things hard to code, and C# makes things worst because it
spoiles all expectancies of being the "one perfect language" we all heard
about the way Microsoft presents it. So the problem here is actually
Microsoft's way of presenting things as being the best, when they are not.
It's the same policy applied with Windows (please excuse me if you think what
I say is rude) and whith SQL Server. Oh, and even with Visual Studio. I am
not complaining just to complain. But .NET is just another language - why
then it is presented as being the best? I repeat, I AM a .NET coder, I DO
like .NET better than Java because of its events and properties, but I would
expect more.
