I think its a good thing to keep in mind for time critical applications. Alot of really good programs that I've seen have been written with a java front end and a c++ or c back end. While Java is making alot of advances in processing speed, it is not coming fast enough and definitely doesnt approach the power of a natively compiled C/C++ program. Luckily though, most of us dont have to worry as much about processing speed as presentation speed. Or unluckily if you pages are slowed by the JRE. :-P -Tim

Maybe : Servlet container in C++ It is certenly interesting to read this. My first though was "interesting, but why would you want to do this??" Doesn't this seem to be a step backwards? The article even points out some of the problems you run into with C++. I also thought it was interesting right at the beginning that the author compared C++ to Java and CGI (did CGI turn into a programming language and I didn't notice?) - I think I get the idea, but it gives the impression it was written by someone who doesn't know what C++, Java, CGI are. ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
