Fully agree with 1), specially if you look at some alternatives back when Java appeared into the scene: - Oberon - Oberon-2 - Active Oberon - Component Pascal - Modula-3 All with GC, value types, generics (just Modula-3), system programming capabilities and compilation to native code in their reference toolchain (Oberon variants also had JITs). But now we have Java, with large installed bases, very mature tools, and latest by Java 10 that mistake might be fixed. |
