True but these approaches have never been marketed as part of the java experience
- pjmlp 10y agoOnly by those that aren't doing Java programming. I use Java since the very early days, and am well aware of them, as are my fellow Java developers, when I work in Java projects.
- rusk 10y agoAren't you great. As a java developer I am well aware of them too. For most people java == java applets; or "hello world" with `javac Hello.java` and then `java -cp. Hello` followed by some interminable wait while all the apparatus of the JVM is marshalled for the sole purpose of emitting a static string and then exiting. And by interminable I mean 2 or 3 second but still. Even in more enlightened scenarios a REPL on jruby is just eye-wateringly painful unless you've all the "secret speedups" enabled. In many more modern development cultures such secrets are generally looked upon as "Yak Shaving".
