consistency between 3rd party libraries. Java has spoiled me
While I agree with all this, I think the reason for Java's
developing smoothness is not portability as such, but the
unitarity of it.
This is exactly how Bjarne puts it: "Java is not portable over
platforms, Java is *a platform*."
Which is quite true, might it be not interesting for some
applications. In a way is just like one would brag about Windows
apps portability on the grounds that all operating systems
support Virtualbox...
