Then you are using an old version of .NET and that's hardly fair in a state of the art comparison. > I'm less interested in debating with C# fanatics.

You were the one bringing up the whole subject of benchmarks after all, on several occations even I'm not a C# fanatic btw., I simply see some obvious (and unfixable) flaws with Java and how things have traditionally been done. Coincidentally, Java is now gaining support for unsigned integers [http://blogs.oracle.com/darcy/entry/unsigned_api] but it's little more than syntax sugar (MSB semantics adapter). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
