There may be bindings for multiple platforms, but it still represents a rejection of the ways sanctioned by Sun in not being vanilla Java. > But I'm not sure how this makes your point. My point is that mandating a UI lib didn't really pan out except making for ugly and slow applications. Take a look at a modern Ubuntu installation, what do you find most of, desktop apps written in C# or Java? How's the situation on Windows? But if you wan't to discuss this further we should probably start a new thread. ;) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
