Rethinking to what I just wrote, the situation is even worse at the moment. It is not that we won't have an Option in the core Java, so we will have to rely on external library to have it. In realty we have an Option that is completely wrongly designed and implemented, so we will need an external lib to have it right! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Java Posse" group.
