People are different. :)) I personally want to know what happens and I don't believe anything waht I can't see. In C I can see the assembly code what (I hope) is a deterministic thing. An interpreter is to big (to me) to think about it as a deterministic thing. And yes, with ``normal'' bugs a managed language could give me more possibility to find the place of the problem. But I want to hope, that we don't commit normal bugs. :) And with mysterious bugs, when you cannot reproduce it in a test system, just the costumer some hundred miles away, I think that the stability of the compiled code (and the core file what may created) is give more more chance to find the right place. > That's a java applet; please don't judge Java the language based on > applets; they are a really bad representation.

I will look after azureus. _______________________________________________ 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
