Wow, what an ad hominem answer:
shankar.unni
I agree with the Evaluation, completely. This is truly
pointless syntactic sugar, unless you're coming directly
from the C# or Visual Basic world without ever having worked
in any other language, and escape sequences are just too
hard for you to comprehend.. (In which case, many other
Java features would be, too..)
This is sad, some one offers a great language feature that will reduce bugs and save money and people respond with insults.
- Locke1689 16y agoI find it ironic that a Java programmer is deriding other programmers (C# and VB) for not being "real" programmers.
- scotth 16y agoThat's narrow minded. There are some great Java programmers. It's just that they don't have the same priorities that you do.
- Locke1689 16y agoI think you misunderstood me: I was saying that the notion of who is a "real" programmer is stupid. I really despise using PHP. Does that make everyone who works at Facebook not a "real" programmer? However, the notion of a Java programmer deriding others for their language choice is even more ridiculous because of the comparative ease of the syntax. If the argument held any merit (which it doesn't), Java definitely wouldn't be on top of the "real programmer" mountain.
