Oh I dunno. Java has changed A WHOLE LOT in 2.5 years :-). > > I have written over 30KLoC in C# (Mono, CSMail etc) during last 1-1/2 > yrs, and love it. Infact, I loved it just after I used delegated and > attributes (and pointers). Yeah. I love C#. Attributes (IMO) are the best language feature that MS has come up with -- ever. I miss anonymous inner classes from Java (it's a pain having to write a class level method for every one line event handler). I'm waiting for anonymous method support in V2... :-). I also miss the Java's massive API collection. We'll have to wait and see what kind of APIs C# will have in 2 years. ^Tum _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
