There are a couple of advantages to using Java instead of Delphi. For one,
you can replace
class files without restarting your application especially simple with
Inprise Application Server.
(sounds like an ad doesn't it! - yes i saw it at BorCon).
I only use Java to create ports of a couple of my apps to run on my Palm
Pilot. Java is still too
slow for my liking. Although JBuilder 4 loads much faster than delphi 5.
Although most of Delphi 5
load time is due to installed packages.
No tool has killed Delphi although Delphi is not very popular in the US
when compared to JAVA.
I don't think you will see a lot of desktop commerical type applications
using Java (mainly because
of speed - my opinion only...). Most Java apps are in house or for
vertical markets.
