Dear Java Folks,
I have a small software company, and we have been trying to decide on a set of tools for our next product.
At the end of the day only Java and .Net were left standing. Still we can not decide.
Could you please comment on these opinions and give us reasons to go for Java?, here they are:
- Java apps are slow in the desktop
- Java apps use a non-standard GUI in Windows
- Java apps are not compiled to static code, so they are slower than C/C++ or at least not faster than VB.
- Java is only good for the server side or the Enterprise side of Computing
This are general opinions, we've heard time and time again, still we have no evidence that these opinions are true.
.Net supposedly does away with most of those difficulties but it eliminates or makes it very difficult to target many OSes plus we believe is not yet mature.
Please send us your opinions and suggestions to
[email protected] Have a nice weekend.
Thanks a lot.
P.S: What tools/languages/IDEs would you choose to develop a killer desktop app in Windows?
