The problems with java come from allowing untrusted compiled code to run natively on your machine (WebStart). Web services, databases, Android apps, etc don't have this issue. However, I'm pretty sure you can write Scala/Clojure WebStart apps that would have the same issues as native Java has here. The Java culture tends to piss me off so I try to stay away from it (and I like scripting languages better anyway). >> On 09/apr/2014, at 22:31, abdelkader belahcene <abelahc...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> is there a risk to program in java since sun is bought by oracle ? > AFAIK, the issue with Oracle is their release cycle (not sure if that's still the case). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
