It's interesting that JDK7 and to a lesser extent JdK6 was all about what Sun thinks developers want.
Properties...don't know if it's really been thought through - yes gettters and setters are a real PITA but all that properties will give us is new way of writing them with no real other benefits.
Closures - I can see a need for them as a way to replace anonymous clases....but who decided out of all the ways to replace anonymous classes (closure, delegates, auto-wiring) that closures was the best of them?
XML built into the source.....not a chance, it's a disaster waiting to happen.
Web Service in JDK6 - why??? If Sun wanted to put in a good distributed SOA system, why didn't they put Jini in there, or at least enhance RMI. |
