> What are actual Java's shortcomings?
I guess, it depends on the application.
- I would not use Java for desktop applications.
- Not for small quick and dirty scripts that I will use once on a while. I use Perl for that.
- Neither for command tools. Start up times may be an issue.
- For server applications, java is great.
