Hi. I am wondering if there exists an implementation to access databases
(like blast) from within Java (without the webinterface). I have seen it
as Perl modules, but I rather need it for Java.
I have read the mailing list and found the link to the "Blast Java
Library" by Patrick McConnell. Can a

Ewan,
The issues in that memo are real. Are those *really* the reasons for
your reluctance to move to Java? Are you sure it's not more of a "not
wanting to start all over again" kind of learning issue?
I remember very well when I switched from C to Java in 1997, it was

Versioning with Java is a pain in the ass. We seem to get repeated

Ewan,
As an old-time C programmer who never learned C++ but is very happy with Java, I have
a question about your comment, "my algorithms try to use all the memory of the
machine". What do you do about malloc() and free()? It seems to me that the most
significant part of the "contract" betwe

Most of the bugs and version problems I've seen are in
the Java GUI libraries. It can be difficult to write
GUI code that works the same way on all of your
supported platforms. There isn't much of a way around
it other than a lot of testing. Code to a common
version (1.3 now?), but test on seve
I have done away with adding biojava.jar ect... to my classpath and have put
