the reversed DNS name part is a bit silly tho
- matja 4y agoCan you elaborate what is silly about it? The reversing, or the DNS, or both? A package called com.example.foo would be package foo in the namespace "example", which is under the namespace "com", which is how a lot of languages do namespace nesting. DNS can be said to be "reversed" from that point of view.
- astrange 4y agoIt's all part of Java's effort to make everything as complicated as possible and put everything in as many namespaces as possible.
- oblio 4y agoWhy? Because you don't like it? Chesterton's fence.
