Hmm...looking forward to Java support...it's the only language I've managed to code anything of significance in so far (almost working monopoly game, and server program for multiplayer adventure game). I keep wanting to improve my C skills, so I can spend some spare time coding for the Amiga. Unfortunately I just never have the time. Maybe I should go for C++ instead, to utilize my OO-experience. Does anybody here have any experience with C++? How does it compare to C and Java?
For most application development C++ is better than Java, first of all, it performs way better, second of all, it's more consequent (imo). When it comes to comparing to C, well, if you code in good manners you get code that is way more structured than in C (OO kinda does that for you), and it's typesafe (if you behave) etc. You might want to look at this page that my apartment-mate did:
