Java was abandoned en masse by the younger generation We tried. Java was fine, JBuilder was fine. When they instead started pushing J2EE, EJB and all the other acronyms I've forgotten, this 'youngster' realised he'd never be smart enough to be a Java developer and bailed back to C, Perl and Python. Had they focused on Java and making Java a great language in its own right, it no doubt would have gone a lot better. But all the 'hype' and marketing around Java was focused entirely on these huge frameworks and enterprise 'solution' architectures which most 'youngsters' just didn't understand and didn't see the need for. If someone makes it clear their product isn't for you and that they don't care about solving your problems, is it strange they abandon you?
