Why does java not guarantee gc()? Why does java not do a lot of
things?
Because it would severely cramp the optimizer.
Adding your proposed rule across the board would probably put a
serious dent in the optimization work the hotspot compiler can do to
your code. Same reason why finalizers aren'

Wow. I'm impressed.

A look at the title would have sufficed.

You can embed OpenGL panels from LWJGL or JOGL... I've done this.
Works nice. You can even embed Swing panels if you want.

In my honest opinion, LINQ is the best thing about .NET. Can anything even
compete with it? In particular, I'm thinking about LINQ2SQL.
I've seen for-comprehensions in other languages, but it's not the same as
the SQL-like syntax in C#.

Scala can't do LINQ either, since there's no support of expression
trees. A thing I'd also love to see in Fan - not necessarily access to
the AST, but an AST.

Hi,
Does anyone here know of some good Java conferences in China? I've done some

Thanks!

So:
AWT = Abstract Windows Toolkit - Wrapper over native components
supplied with java from conception
Swing = Layer over AWT - Much more power in exchange for more complexity.
SWT = Standard Windows Toolkit - IBM supplied kit as used by eclipse,
builds on lessons learned from both AWT and Swing.

But why does the JVM have to know my intent... It knows that I

I think you're missing the point. The JVM can't know your intent when
you started your threads and cannot know that the right thing to do is
to 'level' resource usage across your threads. If you need your
threads to receive a more equal share of resources then this needs to
be expressed in your de
How does that look ok to you? Threads 0 and 1 only executed 23 times

the very least, they should have provided a JVM argument that allowed

I agree, the problem is that while C# provides an evolutionary

corporate legacy Java and state-of-the art Scala. There's are some

Doesn't JavaFX use swing behind the scenes anyway?
True. But the problem is then you are required to write your own
UIDelegates in Swing to get Nimbus to run on that 3'rd part data
picker you tracked down. Flex skinning is a somewhat more approachable
topic with images and CSS (which AFAIK JavaFX has adopted?).

As far as the native vs other look, it depends on the app and the
environment

Oh, and another thing. The current crop of Flex apps has demonstrated that
having a native L&F isn't really necessary for many kinds of apps, so it's
probably better to go with something that looks good vs. some half-assed

The big problem I see with SWT is the native parts (DLL, .so, etc), which
