Re:a 'few' rough edges (Score 1)

Nice indignation here, with Liskov, component stereos and all.

But you've got it quite wrong, I'm afraid. And then I'm assuming that you mean java.lang.NoSuchMethodError, and not javax.mail.MethodNotSupportedException which is something else completely.

NoSuchMethodErrors only occur when you run code that wouldn't compile (such as when you remove a method, but forget to recompile users of that method).

And since you refuse to use the compiler, what's a poor runtime supposed to do when you call a non-existing method? Create one for you? Or install a new tuner?
