The comment that I made re: generics is that the implementation of them is so poor that they are all but unusable. Generics could be a great feature, if it had been fully integrated into the language and not just some sort of compiler-candy-hack-thing-a-ma-bob! I agree that the language could have been enhanced with a good design and implementation. Also, the one thing that irritates me about a lot of the new features is that they have strayed away from traditional Java syntax. Much like the DTD did for XML. The one biggest thing that schemas did to enhance understandability was to adopt the SAME language and syntax for the extension. Guys, don't reuse existing keywords and just put a little @ sign in fornt of them! Thats confusing. Keep the language syntax consistent, that makes it easier to learn and use. |
