Gah! no destructor gotta love that one if you are trying to write threaded API's.
OK my proof goes like this. Not all operating systems are the same, and you can access things in the operating system using Java, breaking encapsulation, and making that code non-independent. Furthermore, Java has no concept of defines, that allow a programmer to compile java for different platforms, so the very idea that one does not have to think about the platform is preventing java programmers from acutually making their programs portable to different platforms. So if there was any language which allows a programmer to port their code to be compileable and executable on a wide variety of systems it is C.

Java is the platform. so far, so good, Java is THE OS abstraction layer. We have to admit the Java people have done it well. You can't get anything better in platform independient. A lot of interpreted languages (Python, Perl, etc.) don't have platform 100% independient libraries... Some libraries works on Linux, others on mac, others on windows... etc... On java, libraries are similar wherever your program is running... I'm not saying its perfect, I'm saying is the best platform standarisation so far so good.
