Well it has .NET rocks among others. The core difference seems to be in cross-pollination - for some reason a large part of the Java crowd likes to pretend C# doesn't exist, which I always thought was a dangerously closed mindset if we want to push the art forward. C# had type-safe method handles in 1.0 (2000), which was evolved into anonymous methods with 2.0 (2005) while finally lambda expressions were introduced with 3.5 (2007). So it predates Scala quite a bit and I still have my doubt whether Scala will ever move from the elite into mainstream. But that's another story, better not hijack the thread... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
