That's quite alright. Nine out of ten people here hate java; even people who love java hate java, that's normal. If you have the interest and motivation to do some cool things with this technology -- work or fun-- hang in there and after a while all that pain becomes just a chore; that's when you've come to grips with it, as Mike said. The last time I felt that pain was last year when I learned maven to write my clojure apps. It was painful but they helped in this board and now I'm OK with it. But there's no question that to use Clojure you need a good grasp of java, the language and infrastructure, no way around that. Once you learn that you might hate it some more. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
