This does really suck. It's going back and using C when you've become sooo used to exceptions. > 3) you would not have namespaces. Meh. I suppose on a large (huge?) project this could be a problem. You can always "namespace" your files by using subdirectories. Oh, wait. You weren't suggesting that you use objects in PHP were you? Ha ha ha ha. Oh, maybe you were. Sorry. > 4) because of dynamic typization, you would be able to find some types of > errors only in runtime. Java is not safe from runtime errors; they're just (mostly) not the kinds of errors that can be prevented using static type-checking. I've come-around on this one: static typing is just one way of doing things. Ruby's mix-ins are very attractive for those of us who have had trouble breaking-into a class hierarchy. :) > 5) no multithreading Meh. Most Java webapps aren't multithreaded anyway in the sense that each request lives in its own little world and usually runs start to finish with no other threading involved. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAknEAZ0ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PA66ACfYgElGkBrKzxS2Lp9ABhW9ZZU UDgAn0eFpdBXzUCcda4G2LOE5733XSgL =X7eW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
