No, I read the web page you linked to; the one where you said "Short sharp rebukes will be in store for any who dare post a lazy, ill-thought out, badly researched or otherwise stupid question to c.l.j.programmer". If that's true, it's a sad statement about the group. -- www.designacourse.com The Easiest Way To Train Anyone... Anywhere.

I don't have that particular experience (I had been working in C++ for some time before Java existed), but I can offer a comment. Learning the basics of any new language, for a competent developer who's already got a few behind them, ought to take something on the order of days. What takes a lot longer (meaning months) is becoming effective in that language and surrounding environments. Unfortunately, the latter task is difficult to even approach unless you've got some kind of non-trivial project to work on, and that comes from using the language for real work. So yeah, I don't doubt you can learn the C++ language fairly quickly, but how productive will you be once the Java standard API is nowhere in sight and you're working with something called Qt or MFC instead? And will you write good code, or code that reads like the transliteration of Java into C++ that it is? That's the main difficulty here. You may want to obtain more information from this perspective employer on what level of C++ experience they are looking for. -- www.designacourse.com The Easiest Way To Train Anyone... Anywhere.

If Flash is better than Java at creating interactive visual content for web sites (and I think it likely is, though that's not my area of experience), then go use Flash! Java will do just fine, thanks, without any concern for interactive animations on web pages. -- www.designacourse.com The Easiest Way To Train Anyone... Anywhere.

Reading through various documentation I discovered JavaBeans. I don't understand what they are, as I'm already doing database access through the servlet and a jdbc connection. Why are there JavaBeans if one can do database access through Servlets? Can one even do JavaBeans with just Jakarta/Tomcat 4.1? If so, is there a simple example that shows JavaBeans, Servlets and JSP in action so I could better understand the relationships between them? Finally, I have a question about Tomcat itself. If one wanted to deploy an application how would the users get to it? The default config is to localhost and to listen on port 8080. How would someone visiting the site even be able to reach the servlet when it is on port 8080? Or is that something that everyone changes to port 80 when they are ready to deploy? In advance I would like to thank you for your help. ============================================================================== TOPIC: (OT) Re: Using hobby source code in your job ? http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.java.programmer/browse_thread/thread/a60dfe865a7807c4 ============================================================================== == 1 of 1 == Date: Tues, Dec 7 2004 8:51 am From: "Maarten Wiltink" "Jim P" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > I like that concept of 100 hours a week for the next 4 to 5 years.

Hey, I do that. Are you calling me a manager? Them's fighting words. (No, I don't have my own business.)
