bj?rn 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2004 well that is because microsoft does not deliver a java2 environment with its IE. they used to deliver their own java in times of java 1.x.if i remeber correctly they did not stick to sun's specs of the libs and the language itself and sun took microsoft to court for that.. since then the microsoft java has not undergone any real further development i think... however... it would be better if microsoft would ship an up-to-date sun jre with their windows, but for obvious reasons they don't do: C# is a concurrence for java and as C# is a microsoft product they do everything to get rid of java...

jacksonicson 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2004 If you are installin java it asks you if you want to use Sun's java or the standard Java which comes with the IE. If you want's to use Sun's you must check this option douring the installation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bj?rn 0 Report post Posted December 3, 2004 hmm...C#....Is it better than JAVA? Well that's a good question. I never learned any C# so far but I have seen severalcode snippets. And what I saw reminded me VERY much of java. But nevertheless Icannot really tell if is better or not. They have a similar concept with virtual machinesbut you can also tell the compiler to produce fast machine code, which is a little more flexible as the java concept.btw: currently i am learning c/c++ and compared to java it is such a complicated messi have the feeling that the c/c++ world is far too "scattered". everybody has its ownconventions, doc tools and so on. java is fortunately a lot more unified compared to c/c++ If not,Why didn't microsoft unify JAVA language's'?how do you mean that exactly? SUN has unified the java language but microsoft did not stickto SUN's specs... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
