Hold the phone ... What debugging problems? What _specific_ speed issues? I'd be really surprised if your project couldn't be resolved with java; what specific problems are you facing? What tests have you run/consider to show that java's supposed "speed issues" will give you trouble? If it's just xml processing I'd say efficient data structures are what you care about, so java can help you there. > Is there any other alternatives or I left something or the C++ is the > only alternative for me? Certainly not. If all else fails you can write memory-intensive stuff in a dll and import it into one java or c#. It'll still be some lower-level coding (in c++ or c or asm) but at least it'll be isolated. You'll need to explain your program more ... -- mic _______________________________________________ Secure Coding mailing list (SC-L) SC-L@securecoding.org List information, subscriptions, etc - http://krvw.com/mailman/listinfo/sc-l List charter available at - http://www.securecoding.org/list/charter.php
