Comment it is nice but has serious flaws (Score 1) 470
I have used it for developing an intranet project. For a single (kind of) browser and limited number of users. I liked it much because I hate the quirks of JavaScript.
It was about a year before and I did not check the new versions.
The flaws I would mention:
It was about a year before and I did not check the new versions.
The flaws I would mention:
- In case of browser incompatibility it would be hard to hack so I would not use it for public web page.
- The Java to compiler was too slow so code-try-code again cycles were slow
- The Java _like_ Language and system libraries were _very_ restricted.
- Finding and including good libraries was not easy. I could not find good collections library for example.
- Witout Java serialization and reflection real easy remoting to a Java web server is not possible. So you have to build and parse xml by hand. I really missed a good remoting framework based on interfaces and no hand coding.
