Generics changed that. Java is becoming C++ like.
I've heard a few Java people say as much, and I find it bizarre. I guess
it is C++ like in that you have a little bit of type theory in there and
it uses <> symbols, but frankly Java without generics just had this huge
gaping eyesore of a problem in its type system, and the solution they
come up with borrows much more from Ada than C++. Honestly, if they
could just generalize what they did with the "synchronize" keyword a bit
more, the language might turn out to be halfway decent.
