Ah, I was just quickly reading on the J2EE wikipedia entry and didn't see "Objective" anywhere on there. You're absolutely right, thank you for clarifying!

- pjmlp 5y agoNo issues, and here is another one, while Java might have a C++ like syntax to make it more appealing to mainstream, its main influence was Objective-C, not C++. https://cs.gmu.edu/~sean/stuff/java-objc.html https://cs.gmu.edu/~sean/stuff/java-objc.html Hence interfaces, dynamic loading, reflection and so forth.
- tombert 5y agoInteresting. Bringing it back to a previous point I made, I met someone who claimed to have helped port over the WebObjects framework from Objective-C to Java, and he claimed that while it's not a 1-to-1, you can fairly easily map a lot of the Objective-C semantics to Java, making the porting process not that hard.
- pjmlp 5y agoYes, they are quite close.
