okay. so this roughly corresponds with my dim memories. It's a way of doing deep recursive calls without having to fill up your stack five billion levels. So... back to the big question. If the JVM is essentially an 8bit stack based CPU with dynamic optimizations underneath, why can't you

I just started looking into this myself, so I may be off-base, but it seems the difficulty is that at compile time, your optimization options are limited when it comes to non-final classes and jumps to functions other than itself. Word on the street has it, JVM has a much better shot at collaps

There are plenty of date pickers available for download. Why should one be bundled with the JVM and make it even larger? These guys should work on the language. If we want Swing to be updated, perhaps it should be done through open source by those who want it. JavaFX is where all the work is going

Good reply Casper :) Getting 3rd party datepickers to look "right" on the different Lafs is next to impossible. The SwingX one particulary. JSR-296 was (according to Alexander Potochkin) reawakened, but it died soon after. There is next to none information
