I don't see any candidate either, and it will not be Scala, for sure. I think Scala will continue to be a pretty interesting language, used in pretty cool places, for a smart and enthusiastic community, as Haskell or Clojure, but it will not replace Java as the major JVM language not even in a million years. Smart engineers will develop in Scala, Assembly, Lisp, whatever, but it's the average developer who accounts for the use of a language worldwide. And Scala will loose those developers from the start. I also agree that Java will be dead by 2014, but not as COBOL. It will be dead as C language is dead. Java is the C of the XXI century. |
