i posted a nice little "talk" about this earlier.. got flamed..
now it is proven that it is so unstable.. not yet ready for any
serious development.

as i said earlier.. if you *intend* to use Java eventually.. write
in C.. use it carefully (ie: so it is easy to port).. and then
when a more STABLE release is available.. port.
i would love to see a FULL (not just a few classes) implementation
on the palm.. so my PC programs work on the Palm.
what about LayoutManagers etc? have they support for these
yet? lightweight components? JDBC classes?? (for talking
to .PDB files).
i have not looked at the spec yet.. but i doubt they have
much of the features i want.. so i use C for now.
Java is a lovely language.. i agree.. but with so much
restrictions.. i am staying well away from it.
cheers.
az.
