This is actually something I've wondered about: I'm guessing webservices for RMI, and maybe the default gui classes for Swing. Otherwise, everything would be pretty much the same. M
There is .NET remoting that looks soooooooo similar to RMI. I heard at a Microsoft Developer talk that somebody at Microsoft came up with the design of .NET remoting independently. hmmmmmm.....
Not exactly. C# seems to be Sun's answer to Java. It's an elegant programming language, apparently strongly based on Java(even more so then Java was based on C++), that seems to offer strong integration within the Windows environment, and significantly weaker integration outside of it( check out the Mono project). IMO, it's a good tool. My own rule is this. If you need enterprise development, and you're working exclusively on windows, and you can afford visual studio, then use C#. Otherwise, Java's your answer. M
I believe that you want to say that C# it's Microsoft response to Java . I've read about .NET and C# and I must say that it's a good language and there is other thing that I like in C# that is the fact that it was designed by the same guy that as created the Delphi language and Delphi is my main language and a very powerfull one.

I'd learn C# because it is similar to Java , both which have commercial benfits in doing so. I'd also read up on Smalltalk and Smalltalk Design Patterns because it embodies OO concepts so well, I hear. These have not much commercial use anymore. But I doubt I'd have time to learn any more languages. Are there any others you'd add to your craftperson's toolkit ? regards
I was forced to learn C# in university and do its assignments but I hated it, however I still managed to pass that course anyway I have forgot everything about C# already
Billy , an opportunity missed! People with C# skills are highly sought after now. Java 1.5 is all about catching up with C#. If you had honed your C# skills along with Java perhaps you'd have been snapped up long ago. It's not too late. With your abilities I am sure you can catch up with C# again. What you learnt at Uni, perhaps, isn't the latest version. Billy, you are too much in a rush. (Not that it's a bad thing, but not all the time!). regards

permaculture is a more symbiotic relationship with nature so I can be even lazier. Read tiny ad:
